Have you ever wanted to share the good news of Jesus Christ, but hesitate because you might not know what to say? You're not alone. We've all been hesitant to share the gospel with others for the same reason. Sure, there are other, more serious reasons as to why Christians don't share their faith as did the early church. (Acts 8:1-4) The question is, can you give a reason for the hope that is within you? (I Pet. 3:15)
For now, I'd like to introduce to you a simple, six point outline of the gospel of Christ. When I say 'simple,' I mean that it is easy to memorize, and is very basic. Certainly it should be expanded upon at some point, but it contains the core elements of the gospel message. They are:
1: Creation.
2: Sin.
3: Death, Judgement (Hell)
4: Jesus' life and death.
5: Jesus' resurrection and glorification.
6: Call to Faith and Repentance
