Tweet the Gospel

How would you describe the gospel in exactly 140 characters? Post it on Twitter, and leave a link to your Tweet in the comments below.

Here’s my entry in exactly 140 characters:

The world, once whole, then broken. Jesus came, suffered, died, lives. Yahweh’s creation restored. Spirit alive in us, in spite of us. Life!

Hat tip to @copyblogger for the 140 character writing contest concept.

Other entries:

Mark Mofield: Was happy with taking the bad with the good. Jesus showed me the good could be great and the bad could be gone forever.

Paul: Christianity is not about what you do, but what God has already done.

David Wilcox: God’s perfect. We’re not. God punished Jesus, the perfect Man, in our place, on the cross. Believe this, turn from sin, and live forever.

Scott Ammons: God made man. Man made mistakes. God still had a plan to fix us all, revealed over time. His son Jesus died for all, even you and me. Sweet.

David Rudd: Aligning with Jesus means giving up my life for his, and accepting his death for mine. God’s pleasure with Jesus is transferred to me.

Jeremy: Being saved is not about what happens when we die, but what begins when we realize God always loves us and wants us to transform the world.

Atom: Wages of sin, death. Gift of God, Jesus. Say Jesus I give you my life, Forgive Me! I’m Saved. I’m Going To Heaven I have Jesus in my heart.

Glory Beam: “Loving God, loving each other” because He first loved us, & gave His only Son to die for us. Go & walk like the child of God that you are!

Gus Kroustalis: Since we didn’t listen when God told us how to live, He sent His only Son to show us. Jesus lived for us to see, then died so we could live.

Dan Covington: Eden was perfect.Man blew it.God sent Jesus.Perfect.God killed him.On purpose.For you.And for me.Google changes lives?Try “the Romans Road”.

Big Mike Lewis: God loves me. Jesus died for me. I can have hope in the resurrection.

Update: Added to Creative Chaos for 5/29.

    People ask. I say, “Christianity is not about what you do, but what God has already done.” If you want that gift, just ask. I’ll help.
