We are who God says we are
What's the gospel in seven words? We asked theologians, pastors and others both to answer this question and to
expand on this in a few sentences. To see all the responses together as they're posted, bookmark this page. Add your own version here. --Ed.
We are who God says we are.
In the incarnation, life,
death and resurrection of Christ we see that God is so for us and with us that
we can no longer be defined according to death, a religion-based worthiness
system or even the categories of late-stage capitalism. We are who God says we
are: the forgiven, broken and blessed children of God; the ones to whom God
draws near. Nothing else gets to tell us who we are.
