In this episode we...

• discuss how to properly include the gospel in our sermons.
  • Beware playing "Pint the Jesus on the Sermon"
  • The gospel is not just "Jesus died for your sins."
  • Instead, consider from the text itself what aspect of God's ETERNAL plan of redemption the author has in mind.
  • The gospel could be seen through:
    • Explicit mention (1 Corinthians 15)
    • Allusion (Genesis 28)
    • Types and shadows in the Old Testament (1 Samuel 17)
    • Prophecy (Isaiah 53)
  • Use an "anchor text" somewhere in the New Testament that amplifies how the gospel informs your sermon.
