God the Father sent his Son to give us the Holy Spirit to make us one.

Sixteen words seems to really be limiting and why such an odd number instead of something such as 15 or 20 and does it have to be our words or scripture verses because if it's scripture it's hard to find something that covers all of what God does in the gospel.

With that being said here is a scripture verse of Romans 5:10 while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son,

It is 16 words because I counted the words in what I wrote :)

16 doesn't have any special significance besides being the word count for the first post.

The thread title is not intended to mean "How to write the gospel in 16 words"

LOL At least no one wrote Gospel Gospel Gospel Gospel 16 times ;)

I will slice and dice one of my favorite verses so as to stay under 16

1 Corinthians 1:30
It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus ... our righteousness, holiness, and redemption.

The 16 words I chose are intended to be a summary of this forum's statement of faith.
