The Good News

There was Good News for all!

Background:

When God Redeemed His people from exile, this was “Good News” or “the Gospel” to all Jews.
Isaiah 52:7
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of good, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
See also Isa. 40:9, 61:1

New Testament Response:

Paul declares that everyone who believes in Christ is redeemed and this "Gospel" applied to them too.
