Jesus first sermon, his inaugural address clocked in at appx. 8 seconds. It was every bit of 17 words.

The time is fulfilled and the Kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and believe the Gospel.

So what is the Gospel? I think I’ve finally seen the obvious, which is to say I’ve had an epiphany. The Gospel is simply this, “the Kingdom of God is at hand.” The call to action is “repent.” So if the in-breaking Kingdom of God is the Gospel, what does repent mean?

I have many thoughts about this. I wonder what yours are.
