Series Title: The God of the Gospel

10. Words Are Not the Packaging

Jesus once said, ‘Whoever has seen me has seen the Father’ (John 14:10).

9. Nobody Could Have Guessed

Why Words Are Necessary

Watching the crucifixion, could you have worked out what was happening?

8. God’s Word About His Word

The gospel is God’s Word. Or more precisely: the written and preached gospel is God’s Word about his Word.

7. A Kingdom Shaped by Pity

So what does God, through his incarnate Son — ‘Christ clothed with his gospel’ — actually reveal to us?

6. God Didn’t Send a Message — He Came Himself

Everywhere in the Bible, God is knowable, and God is known because — and only because — he is pleased to give such knowledge to us.

5. Doing the Things Only God Does

That the New Testament good news teaches the Deity of Jesus Christ is beyond reasonable doubt.

4. You Can’t Get to God Behind Jesus’ Back

The French mathematician and apologist Blaise Pascal reached a startling conclusion: ‘without Jesus Christ the world would not exist, for it would either be destroyed or be a hell.’

3. Two Sentences That Change Everything

A full account of biblical teaching about God would cover a lot of ground: God’s identity (who he is), his character (what he’s like), his will (what he wants), his works (how he acts).

2. The Gospel Is Not About You

That sounds like a rebuke. It’s actually a relief — and it’s where most misunderstandings of the Christian message get sorted out.

1. God Is Where the Good News Starts

The good news begins with God.
