How did He define the gospel? The resurrected Lord taught, "This is the gospel which I have given unto you — that I came into the world to do the will of my Father, because my Father sent me."
Then He amplified that one-sentence definition: "My Father sent me that I might be lifted up upon the cross; and after that I had been lifted up upon the cross, that I might draw all men unto me."
This unique mortal mission of the Lord — the gospel as He defined it — we know as the Atonement. The fulness of the gospel, therefore, connotes a fuller comprehension of the Atonement.
