The Gospel is the good news of Jesus Christ, who came to fulfill the Law on our behalf. The Law, which reveals God's perfect standards, shows us our sin and our inability to meet those standards. This can be a heavy burden, as it highlights our shortcomings and our need for a Savior. However, the Gospel brings hope and relief by proclaiming that Jesus lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, and rose again to give us new life. Through faith in Jesus, we receive God's grace and forgiveness, not because of our works, but because of Christ's work for us. This frees us from the burden of trying to earn God's favor and allows us to live in the joy and peace of knowing we are loved and accepted by God. Even as we continue to struggle with sin, the Holy Spirit works in us to grow in faith and good works, not to earn salvation, but as a response to God's love. This distinction between Law and Gospel is central to the Christian journey. 

As it is written, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9).
