“Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel.” 1 Corinthians 9:16

Because the Gospel defines reality and reorients us to that reality, we resolve to live the gospel, preach the gospel, and glory in the gospel by taking every thought captive to obedience to Christ. You could say that the entire bible is a gospel manifesto. Every passage of Scripture either predicts, prepares for, points to, or proceeds from the work of Christ. In Romans 1-11 are some of the most gospel saturated words in the Bible; 12:1-2 gives a course of action based on the truths laid out in the preceding 11 chapters, based on God's grace poured out on ill-deserving sinners.
