Have you have ever been at a place in your life where could have used a little good news? The word Gospel simply means “Good News”. The Bible is good news because it shows us the faithfulness of God and how it triumphs over the failures of man. The “Good News” is that Jesus lived, loved, died, rose again and one day will return to take us to be with Him forever. Now I don’t care who you are, that is good news. The story of this good news could be told in 3 simple words: a manger, a cross and an empty tomb. The failure of man and the faithfulness of God can be seen in 3 garden scenes. The garden of Eden shows us man’s failure and points to the manger. The garden of Gethsemane shows us Christ surrender and points to the cross. And the garden of the tomb shows us the victory we have through Christ rising from the dead and points to a stone rolled away so we can look in see that it is empty. And it shows us a Jesus who is alive so He can live in our hearts. The good news is God’s faithfulness is greater than our failures and that’s “Good News“.
