How should we respond if someone is offended by the truth of the gospel?

When someone is offended by the truth of the gospel, it is essential to remember that the offense comes not from us but from the message itself. The gospel challenges human pride and self-reliance, which can provoke strong reactions. Our responsibility is to proclaim the truth of Scripture and to clearly communicate the necessity of faith in Christ for salvation. If someone is offended, we must evaluate whether it stems from a misunderstanding of our message rather than a personal offense in our delivery. Our focus should remain on sharing Christ faithfully and lovingly, without compromising the truth.
