The means by which God does this renovation in our life is the communication of the gospel; the proclamation of the saving truth that God is in Christ Jesus, reconciling sinners to himself; the review of the great works of Christ in incarnation, obedience, and his hell-suffering death and burial. The Word of truth is the great message of salvation.1
Joseph A. Pipa
18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
