COR 27 - The Importance of the True Gospel

The message "The Importance of the True Gospel" was delivered at COR 27 held at Bethesda Baptist Church in St. Charles, MO on June 5, 2010. We are Ambassadors of God's Gospel.  We are to proclaim the truth, not adjust it.  Often times the assumption behind diluting or changing the Gospel message is "the world has changed", therefore, what used to be true is no longer true, so the Gospel must be modified in order to reach the lost in this day and age.  You must ask yourself this... the Gospel of Jesus Christ is God's Gospel... it is His Word!  What authority on heaven and earth do you have to change His message?  None!  You cannot revise the Gospel!

"I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.
It is our prayer that the LORD would use this message to move professing Christians to examine their lives to see if the are truly a slave to Christ, or still yet an unrepentant slave to sin?  If you believe you are the latter of the two, repent and believe the Gospel while there's still time.  As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.  (Galatians 1:6-9)

Accursed is to be "set aside for destruction".  Think twice before taking it upon yourself to modify the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

To Him alone be the Glory,
