The Gospel can't be preached, unless we acknowledge what the Gospel is an answer to. The problem we have in this world, is that we suffer. We live tragic lives. We have problems that we can't fix. In order to truly understand the Gospel, we have to truly suffer. We have to see our troubles, our mistakes, our sins for what they really are. To hear the Gospel, we must be brought to the end of ourselves. Before the good news of the Gospel, we must hear the news that we are in need of the Gospel. We are in need of a savior. Jesus suffers with us. Jesus suffers for us. In his suffering, Jesus reveals who he truly is. He is the suffering servant of the Lord and the one who does not leave us in the bad news of our sin, but joins us in it. He takes on the fullness of humanity, that humanity may be restored. In the ugly silence of the cross, we see that we truly need a savior. That's just who Jesus is.
