God is the Gospel - Lesson 6

Defining the Gospel
Event - Death and Resurrection
Achievement - Atonement/Payment
Offer - Salvation by Faith
Application - Living in Light of the Gospel
1 Cor 15:1-4 
Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures,
When Christ died the wrath of God was absorbed by Him. 
Gal 3:13  Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree"—
Christ paid the debt for our sins.
1Pe 2:24  He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. 
Christ's life of perfection opened the door for us to own His righteousness.
Rom 5:19  For as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous. 
Christ purchased eternal life for us.
Rom 5:20  Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 
Rom 5:21  so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through (Christs) righteousness leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
