‘The gospel’ (Hebrews 10:19-23, Ryan Smith)

AudioPhilip

In this message, Ryan Smith points us to Hebrews 10:19-23 as a clear explanation of the gospel – the good news of what Jesus has achieved for us, specifically how because of his death and resurrection, we now have access to God and confidence to enter into his presence. We should do that by drawing near to him and holding onto this hope without swerving.
