(IHKIBTA I) U F B U M LECTURE ON BIBLE TRUTH. (God Willing.) 1.0.0. F. HALL, ALLEN STREET (Opp. Paramount Theatre, Courtenay Place). SUNDAY at 7 p.m. Subject: "WHAT IS THE GOSPEL?" "HE THAT BELIEVETH THE GOSPEL AND IS BAPTISED SHALL BE SAVED" (Jesus—Mark 16:15-16). "I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST, FOR IT IS THE POWER OF GOD UNTO SALVATION TO EVERY ONE THAT BELIEVETH." (Paul—Roms. 1:16, 1 Cor. 15:1-2). The words of Jesus Christ and the Apostle Paul quoted above prove that salvation cannot be received unless "THE GOSPEL" is believed. Hence the vital importance of the question, "What is the Gospel?" The word "Gospel" means "good news" or "glad tidings." What "good news"—"glad tidings"—"gospel"— did Jesus preach? The answer is clearly recorded in the inspired record: (a) "Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their Synagogues, and preaching THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM" (Matt. 4.23, Matt. 9:35). (b) "Now after John was put in prison Jesus came into Galilee preaching the GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD." (Mark 1:14). (c) "And He (Jesus) said unto them, 1 must preach THE KINGDOM, OF GOD to other cities also FOR THEREFORE I AM SENT" (Luke 4:43, Luke 8:1, Acts 1:3). (d) "Then He called His twelve Disciples together .. . and He sent them to preach THE KINGDOM OF GOD . . . and they departed and went through the towns preaching THE GOSPEL." (Luke 9:1-6). , (c) "And now, behold, I know that ye ' all, among whom I have gone preaching THE KINGDOM OF GOD, shall see My face no more" (The Apostle Paul—Acts 20:25, Acts 19-8, Acts 28: 30-31). WHAT IS "THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD"? The answer is in the Lord's prayer, "Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in Heaven" (Matt. 6:10). Is it not "good news," "glad tidings" to know that a KINGDOM OF. GOD is coming on earth with God's will prevailing and "all nations of the earth blessed"? That is certainly "the Gospel" of the Bible, for the Bible from Genesis to Revelation reveals that the very object of the second coming bi Jesus Christ "with power and great glory" is to establish this universal KINGDOM OF GOD on earth and it reveals that this is, God's own remedy for the great burdens under which suffering humanity groans. See Acts 1:11, Acts 3:19----21, Gals. 3:8, Gen. 22:18, Gals. 3:16, Numbs 14:21, "Vsa. 67:4, Psa. 72, Isa. chap. 2, Isa. 9:6, Isa. 11:1-10, Isa. 24:23, Isa. 40:5, Tia 51:3, Isa. 65:17, Jer. 3:17, Jer. 23:5-6, Eze 37-21-22 Dan. 7:14, 18, 22, 27, Amos 9:11. Mkah 4:1-4, Hab. 2:14 Zeph. 3:9, Hag 2-7 Zech. 1:16, Zech. 2:11, Zech. 8:3-8 : Zech. 8:20-22, Zech. 14:16-21. Zech. 14-9 Matt. 19:28, Matt.. 23:39, Matt. 24:30, Luke 2:14, Luke 13:28. Luke 21:24-27, Acts 17-31 '1 Cor. 15:25, Phil. 2:9-11, Rev. 1:7 Rev.'ll:ls. . • Could Jesus Christ have preached better news than this "GOSPEL OF THE KING DOM OF GOD"? And as salvation depends upon believing this "GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD" are not the following God-inspired words of the Apostle Paul only reasonable: "THOUGH WE, OR AN ANGEI. FROM. HEAVEN (OR ANY MAN verse 9) PREACH ANY OTHER GOS PEL UNTO YOU THAN THAI WHICH WE HAVE PREACHF.T UNTO YOU, LET HIM BE ACCUR SED." (Gals. 1:8-9). Questions invited. No collection.
