I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God

The history of humanity has always been characterized since ancient times of practicing various religions and everyone believes according to their opinions or what parents instill from an early age, others do not believe in anything or anyone because they simply call themselves atheists.

In that order of ideas man practices various religions in society and although many say that everything is the same because it will lead them to the same destination, not all religions have the same path because the Bible tangibly describes the only way there is to get to heaven and Get eternal life.

Jesus taught by the various religions and false gods that people began to worship that they were wrong because that was not the right way and taught the following:

John 14: 6
Jesus said to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life; No one comes to the Father except through me.
(New American Standard)

In this verse Jesus left no doubt that all religions were false and would not lead them to Him but instead would drive them away more because He does not share his glory with anyone who is idolized.

Isaiah 42: 8
I am the LORD, that is My name; My glory to another I will not give, Nor My praise to carved images.
(New Latin American Bible)

The Bible makes it clear that only through the gospel of Jesus Christ, that is, through Him will man be justified because in the gospel the justice of God is revealed to men and this is by faith.

About this the apostle Paul pointed out:

Romans 1: 16-17
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is God's power for salvation to everyone who believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 For in the gospel the justice of God is revealed by faith and by faith, as it is written: But the just shall live by faith.
Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960).

In this sense the apostle Paul who was before knowing Jesus persecuting the church after his conversion Paul knew that there was no other just way by which man would be justified but through the gospel of justice and peace. That is why he preached and did it with obligation to all kinds of people and today it is also our obligation to preach the new good of salvation to every creature that is wrong and confused.

Paul was not ashamed to preach the gospel because most of all he knew it was the power of God and had the power and power to bring salvation to all people.

The gospel is for everyone for the rich, poor, skinny, fat, white, black, pretty, ugly, humble, arrogant, atheist, religious, apostate ... in short for all mankind that is why Jesus went to the cross to die to pay our debts so that through Him we could have access to his kingdom and obtain salvation.

Today we do not have to be ashamed of the gospel because it is simply the power of God for all who believe, we serve even the sovereign, highest and all-powerful God of wonders who leads our way when we seek his spirit and truth and approach Him with faith .

The righteous will live by faith and we can do it through the gospel of Jesus Christ, there is no other way or other gods.
