I’m Not Ashamed of the Gospel or My Faith
The world seems to have gone half mad. Sadly, the madness often surrounds the foundations of the Christian faith and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Like the ridicule of Christian values.
Or, questioning spiritual and biblical principles like the Good News as valid or relevant or relatable in present culture.
So I sometimes receive negative remarks on social media about my Christian beliefs.
Still, I am not ashamed of the gospel, the firm foundation of my faith.
But why and how do we remain unashamed of the gospel?
With these Christian foundations to our faith.
1.) Gospel Foundation: The Bible and its Truth
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16 (ESV)
Not only does God’s Word recount the gospel story, but its very foundation lies in Truth. Disciples of Jesus remain unashamed of the gospel and the Bible and Jesus—the way, the truth, and the life. (John 14:6)
The Bible supports our beliefs, helps us live out our faith, and aids with godly living.
So, the more we are in God’s Word, the more we do the right thing…the godly thing…the Jesus thing, and do it all more often. And the more we are not ashamed.
The more we are in God’s Word, the more we do the right thing…the godly thing…the Jesus thing, and do it all more often. And the more we are not ashamed. Share on XIn John 17, Jesus prayed over His disciples.
“I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.” (verses 14 & 17, ESV)
