Summary so far

So now I summarise the Gospel as follows. It summarises both old and new testament to help people understand the way to be saved the destruction when God judges every dead and living person in the future.

The kingdom and throne of David as spoken of in scripture is a refuge for the people of faith to keep them safe under the auspices of Lord Jesus Christ the Son of God who can keep them because God is His Father and His God. This keeps them from evil as the wickedness pervades and  the hardness against the truth pervades that lost the Jews this Kingdom when they crucified Jesus the Christ who God sent them - His Son.

This fulfills the need for God to make some righteous and then to destroy the wicked with righteous judgment.

The ancient Jewish Law of Moses contains a description, effectively, of what God regards as right behaviour such as has been called righteousness. It does not have power to make you behave that way just by reading it. You might behave that way already without ever reading it. The will of God has been to save people by bringing them to behave rightly like the rigteousness described in the Law of Moses and then to rid the world of those still wicked by Jesus judging everyone justly. To bring this all about Jesus came. He taught how to follow Him once you believe in Him. The gospels tell about His time on Earth and how He came from being with the Creator during creation to being first a baby then working miracles as an adult and being crucified as the sacrifice to pay for wrong behaviour. God then raised Him to life again to never die again. This is truth you will know if you follow Jesus Christ and take the promise to geart He has given that in following Him you can find the right way to live to be saved the destruction of the coming judgment.

The only way to escape wrong behaviour is to follow Jesus as Jesus showed by dying for those who follow Him to pay for their wrongs. If people could have been made righteous another way He would not have died on a criss or even have come to die at all because He would not have needed to,

Jesus Christ by allowing His own crucifixion and death showed His 100% belief that following Himself is the only way to true righteousness like the righteousness the Law of Moses describes. It shows His belief in His own promises - promising that righteousness to those who believe in and follow Him. God seconded this belief by raising Him, His Son, from the dead and setting Him at His right hand as Lord and promised King - the Christ.
