More Description
The word "Gospel" literally means "good news." Specifically, it is the good news that forgiveness and eternal life are given freely based on the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God's Son. This good news was foretold by the prophets of the Old Testament and proclaimed by the preachers of Christ in the New Testament. Today, it continues to bring joy to those who receive it.
The Gospel is like a seed in at least three ways. First, like a seed, it was intended to be spread. God desires all people to hear and understand this news. Second, the Gospel has the potential to grow in the life and bring forth a harvest of spiritual fruit. Third, just as a seed must be received into the soil, so the Gospel of Christ must be received into the heart by faith.
