When your hands are screen right -great! When you move your hands left screen- from "indicative" to "imperative" we se that the gospel as life dynamic is unknown or not believed-That movement is very damaging -for when the indicative is revealed the imperative it generates is the choice-less love -the left screen exposition renders all > academic faith. The inner "imperative" of the gospel is not grammar, regulation, guideline - but every preacher does this -so you have lots of company. TY.
The gospel is not about us, its about what God did IN Christ for our justification. We were not involved in any way, shape or form, with what God did in Christ for our justification. However, the fruit of believing the gospel are the applications or consequences. This is Sanctification. Justification and Sanctification are separate aspects. We must not confuse justification with santification or vice versa.
The content of the gospel, the essence of hte gospel, is God’s saving activity in Jesus as Lord – in his sinless life, his atoning death on behalf of sinners, his resurrection. This is the gospel.
The gospel does have consequences. For example, we have a responsibility to pursue justice, according to the biblical terms in which it is set forth. We have a responsibility toward the environment, toward creation. We have a responsibility toward racial reconciliation. We have a responsibility to pursue the welfare of the unborn. But these things are not the gospel. They are the consequences of the gospel. They are responsibilities that fall upon us as Christians because of what God has done.
