#537 - Joseph Prince - Jesus Draws Near When You Are Discouraged - Part 1

We need to rediscover the gospel that Paul preached, the gospel that left these shores 2,000 years ago.

The same God who can count the number of the stars and call them by names is the God who binds up the brokenhearted on earth. What a Savior. In the greatness of his love, he gave us his only begotten Son. He sent him to this earth to heal broken hearts. One of the primary things that Jesus said he came to do, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to preach the good news to the poor and to heal the brokenhearted".

"Whoever is forgiven much will love much". And that's why our message is to tell the world, "You are forgiven". It needs to be received, yes, but you need to tell them they are forgiven, amen. We are all forgiven of our sins.

Under grace, God forgives you already, and if you receive that forgiveness, that forgiveness will lead you to change your mind about whatever areas there is in your life. This is the gospel.
