The Gospel is the good news that God lovingly pursues fallen humankind and offers to restore us into a love-relationship with Him. Not only do we gain a relationship with God, but with His family, the Church.

In our passage, we see that the Holy Spirit convicts Christians to not only deepen in our relationship with Him, but to enter into deep relationships with other believers, where we spend time together and sacrificially serve one another. God’s promise is that as we relate to one another in this way, He will work through these relationships to bless the community with His presence.
