Hey all, here are some links to some great thoughts about the meaning of the gospel. The first one is from C.J. Mahaney and the second from Mark Dever.

Prepare's vision comes from the last passage of the Old Testament. "Look, I am sending you the prophet Elijah before the great and dreadful day of the Lord arrives ..." Jesus said of John the Baptist in Matthew 11:14, "he is Elijah ... the one the prophet said would come." In the same way John prepared the way for Jesus' first coming, God is raising up a generation of young believers in the spirit and power of Elijah to prepare for His return. They will have a bold but humble call to holy living, an uncompromising stand for truth and a passionate devotion to Jesus Christ as the coming Bridegroom. Isaac is a great Old Testament example of Jesus. His bride came to him riding on a camel. Jesus is waiting for his bride not riding on a camel but on a generation typified by John the Baptist who wore a camel hair coat. "Behold, the camels are coming!" Genesis 24:63
