Our ongoing exploration of God’s Good News for Everyone turns to the details of how we gained our freedom from slavery to sin, guilt, shame, and death, the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on the Cross. It’s our redemption by Christ that frees us from the curse of having to try and save ourselves, and through His redemptive work, all who trust in Him, regardless of ethnicity may experience the ongoing experience of God in our lives. Now that’s good news for everyone!
