    Not sure which section to ask this in. I could use some help formulating how to concisely and simply present the Gospel on Twitter. I’d like to be able to do it in one post (limited to 280 characters max.) while covering all the essentials. Any help is appreciated.

    Cheers all.

    God sent His Son as a sinless man to die for all our sin and guilt. His Son being raised from the dead as evidence that this was done and by trusting God in this, all our sin and guilt is fully forgiven, not to be remembered.

    This formula for immortality will never work. You left out the incantation which must be verbalized.

    One of the many false gospels of faith plus works.

    You left out the water also [Mark 16:16]. Think about it, if you don't get this formula 'just right' it could mean infinity in a torture chamber for who knows how many.

    Again a false view of the gospel, faith plus works. The water baptism is not the requirement in order to be saved, belief in the gospel is. (1 Corinthians 1:17, ". . . not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: . . .")
