The Gospel of Jesus Christ
First of all, God wants YOU to be “Saved”

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
Therefore, if you are willing to repent of your sins:
Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.
To be “saved” is a phrase in the Holy Bible, used by Christians that indicates if a person is a possessor of the blessings of God while on Earth and scheduled for entrance into heaven after their death. Being “saved” also means to be accepted into God’s Kingdom in spite of our sinfulness and to be delivered from the wrath and judgment of God which is scheduled to be poured out soon on everyone who does not repent and believe on Jesus Christ His ONLY Son ALONE!
One who is “saved” has received such salvation as a free gift from God, purely by faith in Jesus, God’s only begotten Son, who’s crucifixion on the Roman cross, the shedding of His blood, His willful offering of His perfect body, soul and spirit were given unto death to satisfy God His Father’s furious wrath and punishment for the sin of the world, making it possible only through faith in Christ Jesus, for any one who entrusts their life to His completed work on the cross and His resurrection from the dead three days later, to share in His inheritance and freely obtain an unblemished relationship with God by His grace alone known as “eternal life”.
Simply put, the gospel {or good news} from God, is that even though every one has sinned, God still loves us all and knows that without His mercy that none could ever be “saved.” God knows that all people are born with a sin nature and therefore are incapable of ever meeting His standard that is perfect obedience to His Law. Therefore, salvation is a free gift made available from God for all imperfect people to receive who know that they are not perfect, and are willing to repent and place all their hope in His Son JESUS.
So, Where Do YOU Stand? SAVED! Or LOST!
John 3:14 “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up;
John 3:15 that whoever believes may in Him have eternal life.
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.
John 3:17 “For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through Him.
John 3:18 “He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
