Truly, the gospel is Good News not just good advice.

A lot of preachers, authors, and speakers try to make Christianity a bunch of good advice.

Most best-selling Christian books today are full of good advice about child-rearing, financial planning, or marriage counseling.
But remove the name of Jesus Christ from most of them,
and it won’t affect the book at all.

We’ve got something so much better than good advice, folks.
And I would encourage you to be on guard against sermons or authors, churches or organizations that give you good advice.

If you can take Jesus Christ out of a sermon without affecting it,
you’re probably wasting your time listening to it.

If you can take Jesus Christ out of a book without affecting it,
you’re probably wasting your time reading it.

Paul wasn’t separated unto the good advice of Christian living.
He was separated to the Good News of God.
 
Amen!

I have even heard people pray, saying, "Lord, help us to show them the better way,", (praying for the lost). Our prayers should be, "Help us to show them THE Way." Because Jesus truly is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. And apart from Him we can do nothing.
