The Gospel in Colors

As "Ambassadors" we are called to be heralds of the Good News that has been given to us. The colors of our uniforms are intentional to be able to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We use these colors as a way of illustrating the Hope that lives within the followers of Jesus.

The Gold in our uniform
represents the Holiness of God.

Psalm 99 declares that "The Lord our God is Holy! ... Holy is He!"
Isaiah 6 helps us to understand that we are to see the Lord our
God as "seated on His throne" and "high and lifted up."

The Gospel of Jesus Christ must begin by understanding that God is Holy, Perfect, Pure and Righteous. And there is an infinite chasm between the Holiness of God and the sinfulness of man.

The Black in our uniform represents the total depravity of man.

Ephesians 2:1-3 explains that we are born "dead in our trespasses and sins." This sin causes us to be separated from God. The One, True, Holy God cannot have a relationship with us, when we are in sin. And there is nothing that we can do to work our way out of our sinful state.

Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God." Romans 3:10 explains, "There is none righteous, no not one." And Romans 6:23 concludes that "the wages of sin is death." You see, because of our sin, the just and right punishment is that of eternal damnation.

The Red in our uniform represents the blood of our Savior Jesus Christ.

Praise God because He sent His One and Only Son to die this death that we deserved (John 3:16). Romans 5:6 explains, "For while we were still weak (meaning, "dead in our trespasses and sins"), at the right time Christ died for the ungodly." It continues to verse 8 to say, "but God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

Jesus Christ came to this earth, was born of a virgin (so as to not be born dead in His trespasses and sins), lived a perfect life and died the perfect death. His perfect sacrifice for our sins was the definite atonement, which made it possible for our sins to be forgiven. It was Jesus Christ alone that could be the spotless lamb to take away the sins of the world (John 1:29).

The White in our uniform represents the purification of sin that we can only find in Jesus Christ.

You see, we praise God because Jesus did not stay dead. Three days after He was buried, He rose from the grave, proving that He was truly the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He then ascended to His Father and is seated at the right hand of the Throne of God.

The wrath of God was satisfied with the death of Jesus. On the cross, all of the sins of His children were imputed to Him, and the wrath of God was poured out on that sin. At the same time, the righteousness of Christ was imputed to His children, and we are covered by His righteousness.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes (Romans 1:16). This means that because of the sacrifice and the resurrection of Christ, we can now have a relationship with God. This is available through Faith alone in Christ alone only because of God's Grace alone. It is by God's Grace that we are "made alive in Christ (Ephesians 2:4)" through Faith.

You can repent of your sins and God is faithful and just to forgive you of your sins and will cleanse you from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). You can be made pure -- "white as snow" (Isaiah 1:18).
