The glorious gospel of Christ

The gospel is the good news about Christ's glory

Christ is the image of God, the effulgence of God's glory, illuminating human hearts

The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so that the light of the gospel does not shine on them

2 Cor. 4:4 "The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God."

Heb. 1:3 "The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word."

2 Cor. 4:6 "For God, who said, 'Let light shine out of darkness,' made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory displayed in the face of Christ."

2 Cor. 4:5 "For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake."
