Michael Horton answers the question - What is the gospel? Having watched innumerable YouTube videos of Christians attempting to answer this fundamental question, I found Horton's comments to be among the more profitable and rare. Among his uncommon and worthwhile observations are:
- The gospel is not good advice.
- The gospel never tells us something to do, the gospel tells us about something that's been done. (Amen, brother!)
- You can't do the gospel.
- If we confuse law and gospel we'll make our selves partly our own saviors.
I have provided a complete transcript of Horton's short video below along with teth's commentary.
