What does the Bible say about the Gospel being near to us?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that the Gospel is very near to us, in our hearts and mouths, making it accessible for belief and salvation.

In Deuteronomy 30:11-14, Moses conveys that God's commandments and the message of salvation are not distant or hidden but are near to us. Paul echoes this in Romans 10, stating that the word is near us, even in our mouths and hearts, emphasizing the simplicity and immediacy of the Gospel message. This accessibility of the Gospel signifies that one does not need profound theological knowledge or exceptional efforts to reach God; instead, it's a matter of believing in the heart and confessing with the mouth, as stated in Romans 10:9-10. This truth assures us that the remedy for our sinfulness is readily available to all who believe.
