The Gospel (#1) Presented by Jesus

(Mat 4:17 KJV)
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say,
Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

(John 12:26 KJV)
If any man serve me, let him follow me;
and where I am, there shall also my servant be:
if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.


THE ESSENTIALS OF JESUS' PRESENTATION OF THE GOSPEL
1) REPENT (TURN AWAY FROM SIN AND WICKED BEHAVIOR)
2) FOLLOW ME (JESUS)
3) COUNT THE COST OF DISCIPLESHIP
4) BECOME A DISCIPLE OF JESUS
5) BELIEVE ON JESUS CHRIST (ENTRUST YOUR SPIRITUAL WELL BEING TO HIM)


REPENT (TURN AWAY FROM SIN AND WICKEDNESS)

ATTITUDES OF REPENTANCE
(1 Ki 8:47-49 KJV)
Yet if they shall bethink(Heb=return in their thoughts) themselves in the land whither they were carried captives,
and repent, and make supplication unto thee in the land of them that carried them captives, saying,
We have sinned, and have done perversely, we have committed wickedness;
{48} And so return unto thee with all their heart, and with all their soul,
in the land of their enemies, which led them away captive,
and pray unto thee toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers,
the city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I have built for thy name:
{49} Then hear thou their prayer and their supplication in heaven thy dwelling place,
and maintain their cause,

(Job 42:5-6 KJV)
I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.
{6} Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.

(Jer 8:6a KJV)
I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright:
no man repented him of his wickedness,
saying, What have I done?

(Jer 26:13 KJV)
Therefore now amend your ways and your doings,
and obey the voice of the LORD your God;
and the LORD will repent him of [the evil that he hath pronounced against you. [see Ezek 18:4b]*

(Ezek 18:4 KJV)
Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine:
*[the soul that sinneth, it shall die.]

(Jer 31:18-19 KJV)
I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus;
Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke:
turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the LORD my God.
{19} Surely after that I was turned, I repented;
and after that I was instructed, I SMOTE UPOIN MY THIGH
{Heb=as an expression of grief, indignation or punishment):
I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.

(Ezek 14:6 KJV)
Therefore say unto the house of Israel,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols;
and turn away your faces from all your abominations.

(Ezek 18:30-32 KJV)
Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD.
Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
{31} Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed;
and make you a new heart and a new spirit:
for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
{32} For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD:
wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

(Joel 2:12-13 KJV)
Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart,
and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:
{13} And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God:
for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness,
and repenteth him of the evil.

(Mat 3:1-2 KJV)
In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, {2} And saying,
Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

FRUITS[Grk=as if already plucked} SUITABLE FOR REPENTANCE

(Mat 3:8 KJV)
Bring forth therefore FRUITS* meet for repentance: *[see Gal 5:22-25 & Eph 5:6-12 ]

(Gal 5:22-25 KJV)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, {23} Meekness, temperance:
against such there is no law.
{24} And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
{25} If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

(Eph 5:6-12 KJV)
Let no man deceive you with vain words:
for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
{7} Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
{8} For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord:
walk as children of light:
{9} (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
{10} Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
{11} And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness,
but rather reprove them.
{12} For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

(Mat 4:17-19 KJV)
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say,
Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
{18} And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother,
casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
{19} And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

(Mat 9:12-13 KJV)
But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them,
They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
{13} But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice:
for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FOLLOW ME (JESUS)

(Mat 4:18-20 KJV)
And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren,
Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother,
casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
{19} And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
{20} And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

(Mat 8:21-22 KJV)
And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
{22} But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

(Mat 9:9 KJV)
And as Jesus passed forth from thence,
he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom:
and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

(Mat 16:24-26 KJV)
Then said Jesus unto his disciples,
If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
{25} For whosoever will save his life shall lose it:
and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
{26} For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

(Mat 19:21 KJV)
Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.

(Mark 2:14 KJV)
And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom,
and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

(Mark 8:34-37 KJV)
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them,
Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
{35} For whosoever will save his life shall lose it;
but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
{36} For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
{37} Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

(Mark 10:21-22 KJV)
Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him,
One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:
and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
{22} And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved:
for he had great possessions.

(Luke 5:27-28 KJV)
And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom:
and he said unto him, Follow me.
{28} And he left all, rose up, and followed him.

(Luke 9:23-26 KJV)
And he said to them all,
If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
{24} For whosoever will save his life shall lose it:
but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
{25} For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
{26} For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words,
of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory,
and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

(Luke 9:59-62 KJV)
And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
{60} Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead:
but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.
{61} And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee;
but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
{62} And Jesus said unto him,
No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

(Luke 18:22 KJV)
Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him,
Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:
and come, follow me.

(John 10:27-30 KJV)
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
{28} And I give unto them eternal life;
and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
{29} My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all;
and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
{30} I and my Father are one.

(John 12:26 KJV)
If any man serve me, let him follow me;
and where I am, there shall also my servant be:
if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

(John 21:19 KJV)
This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God.
And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


COUNT THE COST OF DISCIPLESHIP

(Luke 14:28-30 KJV)
For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost,
whether he have sufficient to finish it?
{29} Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it,
all that behold it begin to mock him, {30} Saying,
This man began to build, and was not able to finish.

(Luke 14:33 KJV)
So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath,
he cannot be my disciple.

(Mat 8:20 KJV)
And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests;
but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

(Mat 10:22 KJV)
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake:
but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

(1 Th 3:3-4 KJV)
That no man should be moved by these afflictions:
for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto.
{4} For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation;
even as it came to pass, and ye know.
