Which option best describes the Gospel as used in Christian faith?

• A. The laws given to Moses.
• B. The good news of Jesus Christ, including his life, death, resurrection, and salvation offer.
• C. A historical record of Israel's kings.
• D. A collection of psalms.

Answer: (B)

The Gospel is the good news about Jesus Christ—the life he lived, the death he died on the cross for sin, his resurrection, and the offer of salvation available to anyone who believes. It focuses on God’s rescue plan for humanity and how forgiveness and a restored relationship with God come through faith in Jesus.

This isn’t about rules to follow on a moral checklist, nor is it a history of Israel’s kings, nor a book of poems and prayers. Those other parts of the Bible serve different purposes, but the Gospel is specifically the message that Jesus is the Savior and that through him people can be saved.
