Asked about the sermons of his pastor Phineas D. Gurley, New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, President Abraham Lincoln replied, "I like Gurley. When I go to church, I like to hear the Gospel."
Romans 1:16-17, "I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."
