Taking in Knowledge! Series P6

The good news refers to the Kingdom of God and to salvation by faith in Jesus Christ.  The Bible brings out many good news, like Jehovah's Kingdom (Matthew 4:23), of Jehovah himself (Romans 15:16), of Jesus Christ (Mark 1:1), of undeserved kindness of Jehovah (Acts 20:24), of peace (Ephesians 6:15), and last everlasting good news (Revelation 14:6)!  The Greek word eu·ag·ge´li·on translaates good news, or gospel in the King James version, so an evangelizer if a preacher of the good news (Acts 21:8).

Matthew 4:23
NWT of the JW - "Then he went around throughout the whole of Gal´i·lee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom and curing every sort of disease and every sort of infirmity among the people."
SearchGodsWord.Org - "And Jesus went about (5707) all Galilee, teaching (5723) in their synagogues, and preaching (5723) the gospel of the kingdom, and healing (5723) all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people."

Matthew 24:14
NWT of the JW - "And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come."
SearchGodsWord.Org - "k]And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached (5701) in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come (5692)."

Matthew 10:7
NWT of the JW - "As YOU go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of the heavens has drawn near"
SearchGodsWord.Org - "And as ye go (5740), preach (5720), saying * (5723), The kingdom of heaven is at hand (5758)."

Mark 1:1
NWT of the JW - "[The] beginning of the good news about Jesus Christ:"
SearchGodsWord.Org - "The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;"
 

Revelation 12:10
NWT of the JW - "10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven say:
“Now have come to pass the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down, who accuses them day and night before our God!"
SearchGodsWord.Org - "And I heard (5656) a loud voice saying (5723) in heaven, Now is come (5633) salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser (5723) of our brethren is cast down (5681), which accused them before our God day and night."

In short the good news is that Jehovah's Kingdom is coming, and salvation by faith in Jesus Christ.  So what is Jehovah's Kingdom going to do for us, and how Jesus Christ is connected in Jehovah's Kingdom.
