10 Reasons We Need to be Reminded of the Gospel Everyday (about ourselves)

The gospel is the good news that Christ died for our sins and rose victoriously from the grave. Our sins have separated us from God and God has drawn us to Himself through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

We need to remind ourselves of this message everyday. Here are 10 reasons about ourselves that make constantly reminding ourselves of the gospel a necessity.

1. We quickly forget the gospel.
2. We doubt the power of the gospel to transform us.
3. We think of ourselves more highly than we ought.
4. We are easily distracted.
5. We need the gospel just as much today as we did yesterday.
6. We hope in the wrong things.
7. We are hard-hearted and stiff-necked.
8. We are suspicious of God's intentions.
9. We are stingy.
10. We are full of idols.

Thank you for reminding me who I am without Christ, and who I am with Christ!

We all need to have the gospel preach to us daily and preaching to ourselves daily!

Thank you for this!
