The gospel is more than the availability of forgiveness of sins although reconciliation with the God of the universe is important and necessary. In the context of eternity, our lives here and now are just a tiny beginning. It's good news that Jesus Christ is reigning now and that is His Kingdom is increasing and shall know no end.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01771154665770931750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31896366.post-86414716797846252572007-07-19T10:13:00.000+01:002007-07-19T10:13:00.000+01:00More needs to be said on this area, too many peopl...More needs to be said on this area, too many people say this sort of foolish thing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02894433115379089423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31896366.post-47430850896987220922007-07-19T09:22:00.000+01:002007-07-19T09:22:00.000+01:00Brilliant Post!This is something I have been delib...Brilliant Post!<BR/>This is something I have been deliberating over for a while, I think this totally reinforces my view of doctrine, gives me opportunity to reflect on it.<BR/><BR/>Thanks<BR/>VinceVincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01688268362056728490noreply@blogger.com
