pickledilly Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 The core of the gospel is so very simple, really. Jesus is the Christ (the Anointed One sent of God) who died for humanity’s sin/rebellion against God, was buried and sealed in a tomb, and was raised from death on the third day – all in complete accordance with the prophecies of Scriptures written centuries before. His resurrection was validated by numerous appearances to His beloved friends and a multitude of followers. Paul said here that this truth is the most important part of the Gospel message. Change any component of that, and you’ve abandoned/perverted accurate reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parkerslope Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 What is the core of the gospel according to this verse? Believing that Jesus died on the cross for our sins - believing that after He died, He was put into a tomb (buried) - that after three days in the tomb, Jesus arose from the tomb, alive, to live forever more. More than 500 people are witnesses to the risen Christ. Paraphrase it in your own words based on this passage? I want to tell you what Jesus told me as true, that Jesus died on the cross, taking all sin into His body. He was then buried in a borrowed tomb with a large stone rolled across the entrance and with Roman soldiers as guards. Early on the third day, Jesus arose from the tomb. An angel came and rolled the stone away from the entrance to show anyone that Jesus was not there. After His resurrection Jesus was seen by: - Cephas - the twelve - more than 500 Jewish brothers at the same time - James, the brother of Jesus - all the apostles - Paul Paul, saying that he at the last had seen Jesus.

charisbarak Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Jesus and His grace. We were not worthy of God's favor on us. But, by His grace we can count on God's promises to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastor j Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 The foundational truth that Jesus conquers death and the grave. There is eternal life through Jesus. These are the documented witnesses, numbering sufficient to the believer. no doubt there were countless more. But, just as He said, He is risen!

JanMary Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Q2. (1 Corinthians 15:3-7 ) What is the core of the gospel according to this verse? Paraphrase it in your own words based on this passage. I love how simple and easy it is to understand the Gospel...it shows how MUCH He wants to reach everyone...even the simple minded can understand this message: As was prophesied throughout even the oldest books of the Old Testament (Job: I know that my Redeemer lives...) : Jesus the anointed Messiah came from Heaven as a sinless man and died for the sins of the whole world, so that whoever says "Yes" to Him will be saved and have eternal life. He was crucified on a cross, died, and was buried and arose on the third day. After He arose, he was seen first by Peter (I love that Jesus restored Peter privately for his betrayal and denial...forgiving and welcoming Peter with such grace, love, and acceptance...but then Jesus Is the Person of Grace!) That Jesus was risen from the dead was witnessed by over 500 people, and first to Peter, including the 12 apostles on several occasions, and James, most were still alive when Paul wrote to the Colossians.

The core of the gospel is the resurrection of Christ – without this fact our religion is meaningless. Our Lord Jesus died for our sins, as was prophesied in the Scriptures; was buried but rose on the third day, and appeared to more than 500.

Lion of Grace Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 The core of the Gospel in my own words: Jesus was sent from God the Father to atone for my sins so I could be reconciled to Him. Jesus was the Paschal Lamb, sacrificed for me. He died on the cross, was buried and rose again on the third day. He fulfilled all scripture of the long awaited Messiah and He was proven to be the Son of God. He appeared to many after He rose from the dead. All these things are written down so many will believe and through Him, they will have eternal life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delivered Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Q2. (1 Corinthians 15:3-7) What is the core of the gospel according to this verse? Paraphrase it in your own words based on this passage. The “core” of the Gospel spoken of here, has been foretold to us in the Hebrew Scriptures! 1. Sin separates us from God, and if not dealt with will hinder us from hearing, understanding what Paul has “PASSED on to US” - (Isaiah 59:2) your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.) 2. “Christ Died and was Buried” for our sins, is why God in his love sent his perfect Son, Israel’s Messiah, Yeshua, (Jesus) as an offering for our sin, so that those who believe on Him might have life everlasting. (Isaiah 52: 13-53: 9) He made his grave with the wicked and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.) 3. The Messiah, God’s Son, “Rose from the Grave”. All three of the major sections of the Scriptures foretold this to us, (Leviticus 23:9-15) – the Prophets, (Isaiah 53) and the “Writings, this is why I, we can rejoice (Psalm 16:9-11) therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices: my flesh also will rest in hope. For thou will not leave my soul in hell; neither will thou suffer the Holy One to see corruption. Thou will show me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore; And it must have been in the heart of Luke as he also quoted and rejoiced in this hope that lives within us, (Act 2:26-27) Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope: Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither will thou suffer the Holy One to see corruption. 4. It is important that our “Faith” hold unto the hope, it is because Christ was resurrected that we also will be resurrected, let our lives display this hope as we are watching and waiting for that which was spoken of by Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

lighthouse2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Q2. (1 Corinthians 15:3-7 ) What is the core of the gospel according to this verse? Paraphrase it in your own words based on this passage. The core of the gospel according to 1 Corinth. 15:3-7 Isaiah 53, Christ has died for our sins (crucified on the cross); he was buried and on the third day He rose, being the first fruit of the defeat of sin and after resurrection was seen by the apostles and as many as 500 people at one time. To paraphrase, Jesus Christ was the Son of God according to Matthew 3:17, baptized and preached the good news of the Kingdom of God. He was crucified and died for the sins of the world. He rose on the third day and was seen by His apostles and many others. He ascended into Heaven and will return again to gather His own and put an end to evil and Satan.
