How does the message of the gospel reveal God's character?

Answered in 1 source

The gospel reveals God's character of mercy, justice, and love through the sacrificial death of Christ for sinful humanity.

The gospel is a profound revelation of God's character, showcasing His mercy, justice, and love. Through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, God demonstrates the lengths to which He will go to redeem His people, fulfilling His justice while offering mercy to the guilty. Ephesians 2:4-5 captures this beautifully by stating, 'But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ.' This confluence of attributes assures us that God is both just in dealing with sin and gracious in offering salvation. The gospel is, therefore, not just about our need for forgiveness but reveals the heart of God toward a broken creation.
