What does it really mean to be a Christian? In this episode of Deformed Theology, hosts Jonathan and David break down the true Gospel of Jesus Christ — the Good News that has been preached, distorted, and misunderstood for centuries. Many claim to know Jesus, but few actually understand what the Bible defines as the Gospel.

💬 From Genesis to Revelation, the Gospel is God’s plan to redeem humanity through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But in a world filled with deformed theology, false teachers, and “Christian cults” that twist Scripture, it’s vital to return to what Scripture actually says. This episode answers:

• What is the Gospel according to the Bible?

• Why do we need salvation in the first place?

• What separates the true Gospel from cult doctrines and false gospels?

• How do we receive salvation by grace through faith — not by works?

• What does it mean to “abide in Christ” and live out the Gospel daily?

🔥 Jonathan and David unpack Romans 3, Ephesians 2, John 14:6, and the story of the thief on the cross to reveal that the Gospel isn’t about religion, rank, or rituals — it’s about redemption, reconciliation, and relationship with the living God.

📖 The Gospel begins with the bad news: all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. But the good news is this — Jesus paid the price you could never pay. Through His death and resurrection, He offers freedom, forgiveness, and eternal life to anyone who believes.

You don’t have to “clean yourself up” to come to God. You don’t need secret knowledge or spiritual hierarchy. You just need to surrender. Salvation isn’t earned — it’s received. As Scripture says, “Whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

💡 Key Topics Discussed:

• The fall of man and humanity’s need for redemption

• How Jesus fulfills God’s perfect plan of salvation

• Why “Christian cults” distort the message of grace

• The difference between faith and works

• The role of repentance and abiding in Christ

• The hope and freedom found only in Jesus

✝️ Whether you’ve been a believer for years or you’re questioning what Christianity really means, this episode will challenge, encourage, and equip you to understand and share the Gospel clearly.
