The Power of the Gospel Through You

By Pastor Phreddie Minnifield & Minister George Khalil, February 23, 2025

1 Thessalonians 2:13(NKJV), Romans 1:16 (NKJV)

What is the Gospel

  1. The Gospel is the power of God that released the effects of salvation in our lives

    • Salvation is much more than just being born again.
  2. Salvation refers to every benefit that believers are entitled to through Jesus.

    • Therefore, if we’re not experiencing the abundance that Jesus provided for us–in any area of our lives–then we’re not understanding or believing the Gospel.
    • The Gospel has Power, let it flow through you!
  3. The Gospel is what Jesus came to model

    • Jesus prepared his disciples to carry on the Gospel of the Kingdom, but they had not fully understood until they received the Holy Spirit.
      John 14:1-11 (NKJV)

    • He spoke and demonstrated the Kingdom to them
      Galatians 1:6 (NKJV) Acts 20:24 (NKJV)

  4. The Gospel is the grace of God

    • It’s only in the grace (unmerited favor) of God that there is any good news
  5. The Gospel is the good news that although we were born sinners and worthy of God’s wrath, God, in love, sent His Son to be our substitute

    • Our total dependence on Jesus is what allows His power to flow.
    • always allow Jesus to do the heavy lifting in your life
  6. The Gospel equips us to advance the Kingdom and participate with God on the earth.

Why do we need to preach the gospel? John 15:4-5(NKJV)

  1. Because we are the body of Christ

    • only what we do in Him bears fruit
  2. Only doing what Jesus did is going to produce the same results
    John 14:12 (NKJV)

  3. We preach the gospel, so people can walk in victory

    • knowing the power of the gospel allows us to walk in all the benefits of salvation.
  4. Jesus commanded us to bring the gospel forth

    • The saints do the work for the building up of the body of Christ
      Ephesians 4:11-12 (NKJV), 2 Corinthians 5:18-20 (NKJV)

    • If you said yes to Jesus you are an ambassador for Christ

    • You are on kingdom assignment

    • You are a steward of the ministry of reconciliation

  5. The gospel is confirmed with power Mark 16:15-18 (NKJV)
