Introduction

Mark 1:14-15. New King James Version.
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”

Four-part message

The Time Is Fulfilled

This part of the message is based on verifiable facts. Jesus spent a lot of time on it when people were ready to listen.

The Kingdom of God Is at Hand

This part of the message deals with God and His feelings towards us.

Repent

This part of the message deals with our feelings towards God.

Believe in the Gospel

This part of the message calls us to accept the evidence we are given. While some people think that faith is believing without evidence, Hebrews 11 tells us that faith is evidence.
