A STORY OF GRACE, THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL.
The gospel is the incredibly good news of Christ's death for our sins, His glorious resurrection, and His ever-present love and concern for us. By faith in His blood and His resurrection power, we are delivered from both sin's penalty and power.

The plan of salvation, had been put in place even before the beginning of time( 2 Tim 1:9, Titus 1:2, Eph 1:4), which helps explain why it is called " the everlasting" gospel. Before the world was created, GOD knew what would happen, and so He instituted the plan of salvation to meet the crisis when it, eventually, would come.

The three angles' messages are a story of Grace.They are the story of a savior's love beyond measure, a story of Jesus who loves us so much that He would rather experience hell itself that have one of us lost.

They are the story of a boundless, unfathomable, incomprehensible, undying, unending, infinite love.

God is never caught by surprise. He is not subject to the changing winds of humanity's choices. His (Jesus) plan to deliver us from the domain of sin was not some afterthought when sin reared its ugly head. God was not caught off guard by the awful drama of sin. ( See also Rev 13:8, 1 peter 1:18-20).

The phrase " everlasting gospel" in Revelation 14:6 speaks of the past, the present, and the future. When GOD created humans with the capacity to make moral choices, He anticipated that they would make errant choices. Once His creatures had the capacity to choose, they had the capacity to rebel against His loving nature.
The only way to avoid this reality would be to create robot beings controlled and manipulated by some divine cosmic plan. Forced allegiance is contrary to God's very nature. Love requires choice, and once beings are given the power of choice, the possibility of making the wrong choices exists. Therefore, the plan of salvation was conceived in the mind of GOD before our first parents' rebellion in Eden.

The plan for our redemption was not an afterthought, a plan formulated after the fall of Adam. It was a revelation of “the mystery which hath been kept in silence through times eternal.” Romans 16:25, R. V. It was an unfolding of the principles that from eternal ages have been the foundation of God’s throne. From the beginning, God and Christ knew of the apostasy of Satan, and of the fall of man through the deceptive power of the apostate. God did not ordain that sin should exist, but He foresaw its existence, and made provision to meet the terrible emergency. So great was His love for the world, that He covenanted to give His only-begotten Son, “that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16. DA 22.2

The "eternal gospel" speaks not only of the past and present but it also is the basis of a future with hope. It speaks of living eternally with the one whose heart is aching to be with us forever.

Read Ephesians 1:4. Think about what it means that even before the " foundation of the world" you had been " chosen" in Christ to have salvation in Him. My brothers and sisters the choice is UP to you!
