The Gospel in a nutshell
Was given to Timothy by Paul.
This is the message of good news
He preached to one and all.
God came down from heaven
To earth as mortal man,
Born as a tiny baby
According to the Father’s plan.
The Spirit of the Lord upon Him
In the form of the dove, John saw.
He lived a sinless life,
Obedient to all of God’s law.
He was seen by men and angels
Performing miracles and signs.
Jesus fulfilled His earthly purpose
When for our sins He died.
Three days after the cross
God raised Him from the dead.
Many people saw Him risen,
Even eating fish and bread.
He was caught up in the clouds
Returned to the Father’s side.
By the power of the Holy Spirit,
sent in each believer to abide,
This good news was preached.
To some, it seemed strange
But many heard and believed,
Their
lives forever changed.
