Jesus, Our Gospel

It’s one thing to have the gospel presented to you. It’s another thing to have it come to you.
According to this passage, it is very easy to miss the gospel. How do you know if the gospel has come to you?
This passage tells us four tests so you can know if the gospel has come to you or not: 1) the gospel is joy, 2) the gospel is a power, 3) the gospel is grace, and 4) the gospel is Christ himself.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 3, 1995. Series: Matthew 9. Scripture: Colossians 1:1-8, 28-29.
