The Message of All: is the Gospel of God about His Son

Rom 1(14-15) I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish. 15 So, for my part, I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome. 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. * Context (1 st century Judaism) Eph. 1 (11-13) In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit. NIV

Romans 3:23-24, ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and ALL are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. NIV In context Paul is saying the Gentiles didn't own the market in sin. Eph. 2(8-9) For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God; 9 not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. The power of the Gospel of “the All “is that Salvation has been given freely by Grace. The focus of the message of "All" is most powerful when we give people the solution not the problem. (*In my opinion most people know they have fallen short.) The good news they need to hear is the message that: Grace freely justifies you to receive the gift of God's love.

Eph. 2(13-14) But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14 For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall… 1John 2(1-2) My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; 2 and He Himself is the *propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world. (Mercy triumphs over judgment.) Jesus is our *expiator, one who puts an end to or extinguishes the guilt incurred by someone else.

Romans 5(8-10) But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. 10 For if while we were *enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. (*enemies in context of rejecting Jesus as Messiah) Romans 5(18) So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men. God didn’t make a covenant with you but rather for you through Jesus's finished work. It is faith in the Covenant between the Father and the Son that has justified you and made you righteous in God's eyes. Luke 22(20b) “This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood." (The sacrifice was God's not ours.)

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to ALL MEN" Titus 2:11 Timothy 4:10 For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, *especially of believers. ( NASB) *Jesus saved everyone but believers access the benefits. 1Tim 2(3-6) This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time. Romans 5(18) So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.

The attitude and the message of All, is that the Kindness of God leads men to repentance in which makes us the ambassadors of the Good News! Righteousness Attitude Matt 5(44-45) But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 2Cor 5 (17-20a) Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 18 Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ.
