The gospel is the good news that God is doing a completely new thing in Jesus - demonstrating divine righteousness, making people right in relationship to God and each other, forgiving sins, liberating from the prison of Sin.

God's salvation restores shalom.

No one questions that the laws God gave to Moses to govern the nation of Israel are "holy, righteous and good" (Rom. 7:12).
