How do we know the ministry of the Gospel is true?
Answered in 1 source
The truth of the Gospel ministry is affirmed through Scripture, specifically the call and sending of preachers as God's appointed means of salvation.
The authenticity of the Gospel ministry is underlined by God's own calling and equipping of His servants to proclaim His Word. Romans 10:14-15 clarifies that faith arises from hearing, and hearing comes from the preaching of the Word, which is a divinely instituted means of grace. The Scriptures illustrate that God's sovereignty governs the establishment of this preaching ministry, including how He purifies the lips of His prophets, as exemplified in Isaiah's calling. This entire process demonstrates the truth that God Himself creates the fruit of the lips, validating the ministry as His appointed way to reach sinners with the message of reconciliation and peace.
