Our first talk is titled Gospel. Because before we unpack the four Gospels, we need to first ask the question, “What is THE Gospel?”
What does the word Gospel mean? Today, it’s a religious word. But it didn’t start that way. In Greek, the word for Gospel is Euangelion, and it literally means “Good Tidings” or “Good News”. It comes from the root word Angelos, which means messenger.
Euangelion isn’t just any kind of good news. It’s the good news of victory: God is telling you, “Jesus has fought the battle for you and you’re winning the war.”
