There is nothing in the Gospel itself which could be considered "bad news". <br><br>Very true! However, to the reprobate, I do not see how the Gospel can be good news. In some ways, it is indifferent news to the reprobate (a third option to good news and to bad news), because Christ did not die for them, therefore they are not internally called by the Gospel. Or am I just playing semantics? If so, I apologize!!!!!!<br><br>Steve C
