The 6 core points of the gospel - The skeleton of the gospel

 1st point - We're all sinners - (everybody is a sinner - we've all lied, stolen or coveted something. Everybody is guilty of breaking God's law. (Romans 3:10, 3:23)

2nd point - We all deserve hell - (one lie is enough to condemn us all to hell forever. And we know that we've all lied, and we've all done worse things than lying, therefore we all deserve hell because of our sins). (Romans 6:23a, Revelation 21:8)

3rd point - Christ died, was buried and rose again from the dead in order to pay for all of our sins and to save us from hell (He bore our punishment and made a complete payment for our sins - past, present and future sins). (Romans 5:8, 1Peter 2:24, 1Corinthians 15:3-4).

4th point - Salvation is by trusting Christ alone as Savior - it's by grace through faith, not by works. Salvation is based solely on the payment that Christ made for our sins. It's not based on our good works or efforts. We cannot earn it. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 4:5-6, 11:6)

5th point - Salvation is eternal - Once you are saved, you are saved forever. You cannot lose salvation for any reason because all of your sins, past, present and future are covered and paid for by the blood of Jesus from the moment that you've trusted Him alone as Savior. Now, if you do good things, God will bless you (rewards, etc.) and if you do bad things, God will correct (or chastise) you but you can no longer go to hell because you are saved. Your punishment will come only in this life time and you can never lose it. It's based on God's promise and not on your own faithfulness.

6th point - We are saved the moment we call upon the name of the Lord (by asking Jesus to save us). Believing in our hearts that Jesus died, was buried and rose again and asking Him to save us go hand in hand. The moment ask Him to save us with believing, we are saved forever. Asking Jesus to save us is an expression of faith

The ABC gospel

The core gospel (ABC'S). (Sin)- For all have sinned and come short of the glory (or perfection) of God. As it is written: there is none righteous, no, not one (Romans 3:23, 10). This means that every person has sinned, and there’s a consequence for our sins – ‘’For the wages of sin is death’’ (Romans 6:23). This is not only a physical death, but also a second death in hell – ‘’And all liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death’’ (Revelation 21:8). (Jesus)- But the good news is that Christ died for our sins, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day in order to pay for all of our sins and to save us from hell (He is the propitiation (or the payment) for our sins). ‘’But God commendeth (proves) His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Who his own self bore our sins in his own body on the tree’’. Romans 5:8, 1Peter 2:24. (Salvation)- The one thing the Bible says we mus
