Putting the “Good” In “Good News” | Fake (Good) News Cornerstone Church

Has anyone ever told you they have good news—but then they start talking? And as they do, you realize this “good news” isn’t actually that GOOD. That’s what happened 2,000 years  ago at a church in the city of Galatia. The Good News of the Gospel message was being distorted and mangled into something different—something that was not the Gospel. In an effort to fight this fake news, the Apostle Paul wrote that church a letter, calling them back to the true Gospel…a letter we know as the biblical book of Galatians. Now here we are 2,000 years later, and Paul’s call back to the centrality of the Gospel is as timely today as it was then—a much-needed reminder of why the Gospel is Good News.


If you add a wheel to a bicycle, you suddenly don’t have a bicycle anymore—you now have a tricycle! The process of addition is a process of transformation…and the same is true to Jesus’ Gospel message. The second we begin to add—or take away—from the Good News, we have transformed it into something different, and what we’re left with is not the Gospel.


Galatians 1:6-9 & Galatians 2:1-16
