What Is The Gospel? – Intro
Many excellent and important questions are being asked through the emering church movement. One that has stood out to me as centrally important to my faith journey has been the question:
What Is The Gospel?
I am currently working on an extended post on this question, which explores the Trinitarian nature of the Kingdom and the emerging churches need to embrace it more fully. However, in the mean time, I wanted to get feedback on a basic definition I have been working with lately. I credit Scot McKnight’s books & blog for giving me the foundation for this definition. It should be said here that this is not meant to be an exhaustive definition, but rather a jumping off point for a deeper understanding.
“The Gospel is the glory of the Triune God made manifest in His work to reconcile every person to union with Himself, communion with others, to fullness of life, and to harmony with Creation, in the context of community for the good of all.”
Again, any and all input is welcomed.
