Gospel-centered blogging

Gospel-centered blogging June 14, 2005

As you may know I have blogged much about the gospel in recent months. eucatastrophe: welcomes this and is looking for more gpspel-centered blogs. As he puts it “gospel-centered blogs will make much of the gospel of Christ in their blogging.” He has a couple of great quotes- 1st insfrom Tim Keller- The gospel is not just the A-B-C’s but the A to Z of Christianity.

Eucatastrophe continues- “It is not merely that which gives us entrance into the Christian life but also that which grows us in the Christian life. Therefore, gospel-centered bloggers do not address sanctification issues without reference to the gospel of God.The gospel is the hermeneutical key to unlocking the Scriptures.”

He also quotes Graeme Goldsworthy: By referring to the gospel as the hermeneutical key I mean that proper interpretation of any part of the Bible requires us to relate it to the person and work of Jesus. Therefore, gospel-centered bloggers do not interpret and apply texts without reference to Scripture’s overarching story-line of the gospel.”

3. The light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ is seen in the gospel (2 Corinthians 4:3-6). God shines this light in our hearts with saving and sanctifying effect through the preaching of the gospel. Therefore, gospel-centered blogs will make much of the gospel of Christ in their blogging.”

Eucatastrophe has also done some work in gathering a list of gospel bloggers together. Interestingly there was at least one of these that was not in th Blogdom of God. They are now. If you run a list of Christian blogs do tell me about it! We hope to go public with the changes this weekend.
