Publisher's summary

This newest addition to the IX Marks series presents a clear, straightforward statement of the gospel, the third mark of a healthy church. What is the gospel? It seems like a simple question, yet it has been known to incite some heated responses, even in the church. How are we to formulate a clear, biblical understanding of the gospel? Tradition, reason, and experience all leave us ultimately disappointed. If we want answers, we must turn to the Word of God. Greg Gilbert does so in What Is the Gospel? Beginning with Paul's systematic presentation of the gospel in Romans and moving through the sermons in Acts, Gilbert argues that the central structure of the gospel consists of four main subjects: God, man, Christ, and a response. The book carefully examines each and then explores the effects the gospel can have in individuals, churches, and the world. Both Christian and non-Christian readers will gain a clearer understanding of the gospel in this valuable resource.

Calvinism at its finest...aka back loaded works

I do not recommend this book. Definitely not for new believers who cannot discern false teachings. This author teaches points from Calvinism and strays from the true gospel which is: we are saved by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone! No amount of works can save us, keep us saved, or prove we are saved! This book teaches works and fruit prove you’re saved which is FALSE. Don’t waste your time listening to it.

Spot on

Recommend this book to Christians as well as unbelievers. Christians need to understand better what the gospel REALLY is and tell others about it the way God designed.

Clear understanding of the Gospel

Each chapter clarifies its specific point within the gospel and in the finish it binds them all together.

So beneficial to those seeking the truth

This series of books are amazing in helping us through the journey of finding God and answering questions. Coming from someone who hadn’t believed in years.

A Good Summary of the Good News

Concise and precise articulation of the gospel of Jesus Christ. A helpful work for anyone. Non-Christians will discover the essence of the Christian faith. Believers will be reminded, encouraged, and equipped to share.
