The gospel is ‘the power of God’

                                                  (Romans 1:16-17).

                                 It establishes us in everything in life,

                                even giving us prosperity and health

                                         (Romans 16:25, 3 John 2-3).



                                     But it only works when we are

                                 separated to it, as Paul says he was

                                                     (Romans 1:1).


                                         This means we can’t mix it
                                                with anything else:


                       the law, theology, or the wisdom of preachers.
                           And the Apostle Paul says most preachers


                                            don’t preach the gospel

                                       (I Cor 4:15, I Tim 1:7, Gal 4:17).



                                        Jesus tells us the same thing:

                              “Don’t pour new wine into old bottles.”

                        “Don’t sew a new patch on an old garment.”
