2 Arent we tired of…

3 Anne Murray sings a song entitled: We Sure Could Use A Little Good News Today!

4 The Gospel is Good News! Mk. 1:1 - The beginning of the gospel {good news} about Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Rom. 1:16 - I am not ashamed of the gospel {good news}, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes… Mk. 16:15, 16 - Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved…

5 The Birth of Jesus is Good News The angels announced, Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born for you; he is Christ the Lord. Without the birth - no death! Without the manger - no cross! Without the story of Bethlehem - no story of Gethsemane, Golgotha, and the empty tomb!

6 Mark 1:1-8 1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. 2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: "BEHOLD, I SEND MY MES- SENGER AHEAD OF YOU, WHO WILL PREPARE YOUR WAY; THE VOICE OF ONE CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS, 'MAKE READY THE WAY OF THE LORD, MAKE HIS PATHS STRAIGHT.' 4 John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And all the country of Judea was going out to him, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins. 6 John was clothed with camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist, and his diet was locusts and wild honey. 7 And he was preaching, and saying, "After me One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to stoop down and untie the thong of His sandals. 8 "I baptized you with water; but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."

7 John Announced Good News! People came from all around to hear it. John fulfilled OT prophecies John pointed people to Christ! We can announce the good news to others as well! People will respond to the good news.

8 Jesus Brought the Good News! He is the subject matter of the Gospel! His coming was the fulfillment of Gods plan. There is salvation in none other! Simeon said of his birth, This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many… (Lk. 2:34).

9 We Can Experience the Good News! We can make it our own! We can enjoy the benefits! We can have hope! We can have peace & contentment The Good News of Jesus can change our lives!

10 A Beginning and An End The birth of Jesus marks the beginning of the Gospel - mans opportunity to be saved. If there was a beginning - there will also be an end! One day the offer will be no more, and it will be too late. Dont let the good news become bad news!
