The logic of the gospel

I Thessalonians 5:23-24
I Thessalonians, chapter 5, and we're going to read together verses 23 and 24, in just a moment tonight I want to speak to you on this subject the logic of the gospel. The logic of the gospel. Now I've been studying the bible now seriously for forty years. ! And, uh, there are four things, four truths, that have in a way unlocked the rest of the bible for me. That've, just put things together. Sorta help me to understand things logically. To synthesize and coordinate, in my own heart and mind, the entire bible.
