The Purpose of the Gospel, Part 1 (Heb. 2:14-15)

Summary

Elder Chris McCool preaches on the purpose of the gospel, emphasizing that Jesus Christ came to destroy the power of death through His death, burial, and resurrection, and to deliver believers from the fear of death and bondage. The gospel is effective only for those already born again, serving to save believers in a timely way rather than eternally. The sermon highlights Christ's unique role as both fully God and fully man, fulfilling God's work to save His people from their sins. The message draws from Hebrews 2:14-15 and Isaiah 42 to explain Christ's mission and the assurance of salvation.
