The Eternal Gospel of Jesus Christ


The eternal gospel is the good news that God is redeeming and reconciling sinners to Himself eternally through the sacrificial and substitutionary death, burial, and resurrection of the man  Christ  Jesus through authentic faith in what Jesus,  the one and only sinless  Son of God, accomplished on a tree in the city of Jerusalem  2000 years ago.
