God wants me to take the GOSPEL seriously
The Apostle Paul took the Gospel seriously!
I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor…” v13
“I acted in Ignorance and unbelief. V13

God’s mercy reached Paul in his ignorance.
God’s mercy reached Paul in his unbelief.

This is the Gospel: “Christ Jesus came into the world of whom I am the worst.” V15

The more seriously you take something, the more fully you’re able to celebrate it.

What does it practically look like to take the Gospel seriously?

I don’t just believe it to be true, I build my life on it.
When I’m taking the Gospel seriously, it becomes my greatest joy.
When I’m taking the Gospel seriously, it becomes a frequent topic of conversation.
When I’m taking the Gospel seriously, I pursue God harder than anything else.

Our greatest need is to be made right with God.

 
My NEXT STEP with God this week:

receive the Gospel personally.
feed my sense of awe and celebration of the gospel by listening to episodes of “The Unfolding” podcast or “I found Shalom”.
ask God for a chance to talk about the Gospel with someone who hasn’t yet experienced its life-changing power.
