“The Essence of the Gospel” (John 3:16-17)
Apostle Bernard Whaley | Faith in Action Kingdom Ministries

“The essence of the gospel is love. L-O-V-E. God loved you in spite of you. While you were yet in your sins, God sent forth his only begotten son.” This week, Apostle Bernard Whaley extracts the true essence of the gospel from the familiar passage of John 3:16. “God didn’t come here to point fingers at you… You were already condemned when He sent Jesus into this world… By God’s standard we were all destined for hell,” he says, drawing contrast to the current political climate of condemnation. Listen as Pastor Whaley explains that “The good news is that God looked past your fault and saw your need. So that if you accept His Son and the sacrifice His Son made for you, the Bible says you shall be saved.”
