2022 Bible Advocate Theme: \u201cLiving the Gospel\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Our world has no shortage of bad news today. We do not need to list here all the examples we\u2019ve seen the last few years; we\u2019ve experienced them! But for all the bad news, there is good news as well, and Christians are ambassadors of it. Indeed, the bad and the worst have a way of making the good sound all the better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With this in mind, the <\/span>Bible Advocate <\/span><\/i>is dedicating our six issues of 2022 to what must be the heart of our faith: the gospel. The Greek word <\/span>evangelion <\/span><\/i>translates to <\/span>gospel <\/span><\/i>in English, and both mean \u201cgood news.\u201d What is the good news that we are heralds of? In a single word, <\/span>Jesus<\/span><\/i>! We want to spend the year focused on \u201cthe gospel of God . . . concerning His Son\u201d (Romans 1:1-4) and why \u201cthe gospel of Jesus . . . [and] the kingdom\u201d (Mark 1:1, 14) is the good news we need right now.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As \u201cLiving the Gospel\u201d indicates, believers are heralds of the gospel not only in word but also in deed. We must proclaim the gospel, and we must live it. The word of the gospel is more powerful and persuasive as it flows from a life formed by the good news \u2014 <\/span>a life that is good news<\/span><\/i>!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

So join our 2022 journey as we explore the gospel. In addition to instructive Bible-focused articles, we welcome your testimonies about witnessing, outreach, and discipleship.<\/span><\/p>\n
