The document provides an overview of the gospel message. Some key points: 1) The gospel is the "good news" that Jesus came to save sinners and make things right between them and God. 2) All people were sinful and deserving of God's wrath, but God sent Jesus to die on the cross to pay the penalty for sins. 3) Through faith in Jesus, people can be saved, made alive in Christ, and have eternal life in heaven rather than facing eternal punishment. The gospel calls people to repentance and faith in Jesus for salvation, which is a free gift of God's grace, not by works.

honor, not in the passion of lust like
the Gentiles who do not know God;

his brother in this matter, because
the Lord is an avenger in all these
things, as we told you beforehand

GOOD NEWS
 Spirituality- We are all spiritual beings. God is spirit
and we were created from Him, but yet he is distinct. -

peace or under God’s wrath.

from us and if sin is far from us that means He is
truly pleased with us and that should always be
our ultimate aim.

43. LOVING THE AUTHOR OF
THE GOSPEL
 “do not love the world or the things
in the world. If anyone loves the
world, the love of the Father is not in
him. For all that is in the world—the
desires of the flesh and the desires of
the eyes and pride of life—

44. LOVING THE AUTHOR OF
THE GOSPEL
 is not from the Father but is from
the world. And the world is passing
away along with its desires, but
whoever does the will of God abides
forever.”-1 John 2:15-17


45. THE AUTHOR
 Every one loves the story. We are a generation that lives
for the sequel. We love stories because of how it makes us
feel, it’s challenge us, convicts us, and inspires us to be
swept up into the characters and their lives. God is the
author of our salvation and has written a story much bigger
than any story man could ever write and he doesn’t want us
to spectators in the story, but participants.

46. THE CHARACTERS
 There are three sets of characters in the story of God:
 The main character Jesus: It’s all about Jesus, not you!
 Those who love the Father
 Those who hate the Father

47. THE LOVERS
 We must always remember that it was God who first loved,
not the other way around. –Rev. 2:4
 Noah-Genesis 6:1-14
 He walked with the Lord and built an ark despite the
criticism from all the people who thought he was crazy for
believing that a flood was coming to cleanse the world of
wickedness. God spared him and his family.

48. THE LOVERS
 Abraham-Genesis 22:1-14
 He loved the Lord so much so that he was willing to sacrifice
his own son. The Lord saw that he feared Him and spared his
only son by providing a ram for the sacrifice.
 Hannah-1 Samuel 1:1-28
 She loved the Lord so much that she gave her only son,
Samuel, to service of the Lord, because the Lord had provided.

49. THE LOVERS
 David- 1 Samuel 16:7
 He is said to be a man after God’s on heart. He was not
perfect but he did love the Lord and when he sinned he
confessed his sin to the Lord. He did many great things for the
Lord.
 The Disciples-The New Testament
 The Disciples of Jesus gave them even until death for the
sake of the Gospel.

50. THE LOVER
 Jesus-Romans 5:8; John 15:13
 These verses explains everything.
 There is no greater lover than Jesus. He is faithfully
committed to lavishing His love on you every sec of every
hour of every day for all eternity and nothing will get in the
way.-Romans 8:37-39

51. THE HATERS
 Pharaoh- Exodus 14:3-4
 He is a punk. He thought he was the greatest man to live
and all had all power. God showed him otherwise.
 Ahab-1 Kings 16:30
 He did evil in the sight of the Lord more than any other
king before him. He worshipped Baal and not the living God
of his fathers.

52. THE HATERS
 Jezebel-Revelation 2:20
 This lady was bad. Enough said. Girls don’t be this girl.
 Pharisees- Matthew 23
 They hated Jesus. They were teachers of the Law and knew
Scripture better than anyone, but couldn’t recognize the God
of the Scriptures when he was standing right in front of
them. John 5:39-47

53. THE HATER
 El Diablo, Lucifer, or Stank face- 1 Peter 5:8; John 8:44
 He despises the main character Jesus. He thought in his
heart that he was more magnificent than God. He thought
wrong. He was not extended salvation and hates without any
mercy the lovers of God.

54. IDENTIFYING A HATER
 The Jealous Joker
 This person loves world period. They don’t have to have
the things of the world their are bent on evil and being with
world. They don’t care about anything. They just want to
watch the world burn. Your with Satan’s posse and your
trying to cause as much havoc as you can. Your about his
will, not God’s, because you love him and not God.

55. IDENTIFYING A HATER
 You make life chaos for those who really love you and
care for you. The sad part is you don’t care.
 You and the world are in starring roles. As long as you
have the world your alright.
 You are an assassin against God. Anything that has
assignment to bring God Glory your signing up to take it out.

56. IDENTIFYING A HATER
 The Gaudy Gold digger
 This person loves the trinkets and treasures the world’s
gives. They do whatever the worlds wants to flaunt whatever
the world wants the others to see. They love the world for the
money, because their more about themselves and they will
align themselves with the world to gain the world’s pearls.

57. IDENTIFYING A HATER
 When things get tough and there’s tension between the
light and dark. They take dark’s side every time, because
they love the things the world and don’t want to be apart
from them.
 Fashion, popularity, pleasure, riches, success, comfort,
etc. are their goals in life and they dig however deep they
need to dig to get them. Very easy to sway.

58. IDENTIFYING A HATER
 They try to manipulate to get want they want
 They don’t like correction, but really don’t care. They say
what they got say to keep their treasure. They rather go
through the self checkout than being checked out.
 These people are billboards on the road of life marketing
death to those on the way to God’s throne. They sold
themselves out for far lesser pleasures.

59. IDENTIFYING A HATER
 Confused carl & Carla
 The most dangerous group to me because their hard to
identify. These people have the Hannah Montana mentality,
“they want the best of both worlds.” they like this mentality
because it allows them to have a passport into both camps,
the Kingdom of light and the Kingdom of darkness.

60. IDENTIFYING A HATER
 They either stay neutral not taking a clear stance at all, or
their standing up for both, because they don’t want to fight.
 You think by doing good things that it’s good enough to
keep your status as Christian, so everyone will think you are
a Christian, so you can put on your dancing shoes and dance
it up with the world at night without anyone knowing.
 Smoke screen conviction

61. IDENTIFYING A LOVER
 Content Carl & Carla
 This people love God and truly have the Father abiding in
them. They find the world completely unfulfilling and
distasteful. Only God can satisfy them. Whether they are
married or not, rich or poor, fame or no fame their hope is
in Christ and Christ alone is their righteous. They are the
real deal and they make no deals with the world.

62. IDENTIFYING A LOVER
 Cautions:
 Remember it’s not Jesus and me, it’s Jesus and we
 God gifts you to serve mankind, not save mankind
 You will always be tempted to leave the One who called
you until your in the ground. Do not listen to the world and
it’s lies, abide in the Father and do His will and you shall live
forever

63. LOVER OR HATER?
 How will it end?
 Do you want to be remember as a Lover or Hater of God?
 John 8:12-30

64. LOVING MY ROLE IN THE

which it
