Anglican Daily Fountain Devotional 14 April 2020
Outline: In today’s text, Paul explained to the Church the gospel and its contents as the good news about Jesus Christ; a means through which mankind is saved from sin.The details are -Jesus died for our sins; He was buried but rose again on the third day; He was seen by many people, a proof of His resurrection.
The above details are the message of Christianity, the pivot upon which our faith revolves. Some Jews however did not believe in the Messiahship and resurrection of Jesus. The soldiers who guarded his tomb spread false news that His disciples came and stole away His corpse. However, the gospel cannot be voided by cleverly invented stories.
The authenticity of Christ’s resurrection rests on the fact that He was seen by his brothers, apostles, some women and many people at different times. It is a historical fact and God has made Him both Lord and Saviour (Acts 2:36).If Jesus did not resurrect, then our faith is vain.To be saved from sin, one must receive this gospel and believe and hold fast to it continually. Are you saved from your sins?
Key Note: “But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.” (2 Thessalonians 3:3)
Prayer
Lord, I repent of my sins today and believe the gospel
