What is the good news about the Lord Jesus?

Actes 11:20 (NEG79)

20 Il y eut cependant parmi eux quelques hommes de Chypre et de Cyrène, qui, étant venus à Antioche, s'adressèrent aussi aux Grecs, et leur annoncèrent la bonne nouvelle du Seigneur Jésus.

The good news about the Lord Jesus is a reference to the good news that Jesus of Nazareth is the Christ,1 that he has died the penalty which sinners deserve for their sins, and lived the perfect life that is required to dwell in the presence of God. The fact that Jesus is proclaimed as Lord might also connect with the Greek culture in the sense that the Greeks and Romans were taught that Caesar is Lord.
