The Gospel, In Plain Terms
JOHN 3:16–18
It's the simple message of believing in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior. John 3:16–18 is really the anchor verses for the gospel. It takes just a simple belief in Jesus Christ and that's it. The reason why it's a gospel revolution is because we're told all the things we must do to get in good with God when it just takes a simple belief. It turns religion on its head — what religion does hasn't been necessary for 2,000 years.
