"The Christian Gospel is..."

"In Christ I could know that I was accepted by grace not only despite my flaws, but because I was willing to admit them.
 The Christian gospel is that I am so flawed that Jesus had to die for me, yet I am so loved and valued that Jesus was glad to die for me.
 The fact that Jesus had to die for me humbled me out of my pride. The fact that Jesus was glad to die for me assured me out of my fear."
 ______Timothy Keller
