"The word gospel means good news. The GOOD NEWS is that Jesus Christ has made a perfect atonement for mankind that will redeem all mankind from the grave and reward each individual according to his/her works. This atonement was begun by his appointment in the premortal world but was worked out by Jesus during his mortal sojourn. Therefore, the records of his mortal life and the events pertaining to his ministry are called the Gospels; the four that are contained in our Bible are presented under the names of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John."
"YESTERDAY'S" News
taken from President Hinckley's opening remarks in October 2001 General Conference.
"The vision of Joel has been fulfilled wherein he declared:EXCITING News!
'And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
'And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
'And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
'The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come.
'And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call' (Joel 2:28–32)."
