What are some ways the Christian gospel is perceived in our culture?
When Jesus was addressing the subject of the Gospel He was clear and direct about it. He said, that it was through Him alone that Salvation would come to humanity. However, denying that he is a divine being diminishes His promises for eternal life. Perhaps, the majority of today’s society has done that when it comes to the Son of God, Jesus. Furthermore, those who believe in a God believe in a loving God, a loving God would not chastise anyone, nor send anybody to hell for that matter. Therefore, if the Son of God is not what he said He was and there is no Eternal damnation, why should they contemplate the seriousness of the Gospel? It is a matter of trust in Jesus as the Son of God.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9 (NRSV)) What are some specific emotional reasons you reject the Christian gospel? Perhaps, this is not a new problem, since day one of the proclamation of the good news this has been an issue, the many emotional reasons people discard the Gospel. Personally, I have seen this first hand. One of the reasons people disregard the message is that merely humans wrote the Bible; in addition to that, what we have is a copy of someone else’s copy. In other words, we have no originals. This can mess up a faithless person for the believing needs to be done by faith and not by sight. The concept of original sin can also cause disarray and emotional distress when it comes to accepting the Good News. Holding someone else accountable for someone else’s sin may not be accepted well also. What are some specific intellectual reasons people may reject the Christian gospel? The message of the Good News and Christianity is a faith-based concept.
