Introduction:
1. What is the Gospel?
- The Gospel is about God’s Son, Jesus Christ.
- In Christ, God loves you to death.
- We can’t save ourselves—God must come to us.

2. Paul, an Apostle you can Trust (v1-2, v10)
- He serves the Risen Jesus.
- He is not a man-pleaser.

3. A Prayer of Grace and Peace (v3-5)
- Grace: God’s good will toward us, and his good work upon us—making us to be more like Jesus.
- Peace: The soul-comfort of every faithful Christian.
- Telling your story—testimonies and Gospel outlines.

4. Recognising the Lie (v6-9)

It’s a false Gospel if it:
- Focuses on something other than Jesus.
- Underestimates the seriousness of sin.
- Promises things that God doesn’t promise.
- Demands things that God doesn’t demand.

Conclusion:
You need to know the Gospel!
- The truth of the Gospel is a matter of life and death.
- People need to know the Lord.
- There is only ONE Gospel that is powerful to save.
- Know it, share it, live it, guard it.
