We get right into the nuts and bolts of the gospel message in verses 4. The true gospel results in changed lives. Jesus gave his life in order to rescue us from this world of evil. We understand that Jesus died for us, but the gospel is a deeper message of not just redemption but also of sanctification. This is a work of God in us to separate us from the world and purify us. This is evident in a person who has truly believed on Jesus for their salvation and accepted Gods plan. We call it fruit and will get into the details of this fruit later in the book.
