The Foolishness of the Gospel

The gospel is foolishness to the world because it tells us there is nothing we can do to earn God’s favor, but we must trust only in Christ, who died for the sins of His people and was raised for the sake of our salvation. In this message, Dr. Harry Reeder considers why the gospel is so foolish to the world while reminding us that the gospel is the power of God for salvation that must be declared to all people.
