For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes. Romans 1:16

The gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, the "Good News," is forgiveness, deliverance, and salvation for the sinner, of which we all are! Within it, the seven places Jesus bled for us, as well as His death, burial, and resurrection, gave us a complete and everlasting salvation!
The gospel holds the power to transform a sinner into a saint, as a worm to a butterfly, and a lost, hopeless person into a new creation! By grace we have been saved through faith and not by any work of ourselves; it is a gift of God. The first man to receive the supernatural washing of the Savior's blood was the thief on the cross.
A lowly thief, guilty of his crimes, confessed to his fellow thief that they were worthy of their punishment and then acknowledged Jesus as Lord and King, and He said to him, "Today, you will be with Me in Paradise."
For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” Romans 1:17
