LORD JESUS CHRIST IS PORTRAYED AS THE SON OF GOD, AND THE ONLY WAY A PERSON CAN KNOW THE FATHER IS THROUGH HIM. Many People Question That Jesus Rose From The Dead, Not Because They Have No Answers To The Reason Why We Are Born To Die, But Because They Are Egotists And Want To Believe That They Themselves Are Equal To God. There is a massive difference between being created in the image of God and being equal with God.

One would have to assume that you mean how is Jesus portrayed in the gospel message, when stating, “In the gospel....”

Jesus is portrayed as the Lamb of God (Revelation 5:6-13) who, having ransomed mankind from the sin by paying the required price, has now provided the means of reconciliation with the Father through faith in His resurrection (Romans 5:9-11), which is confirmed by the baptism of the Holy Spirit—of which, Lord Jesus Himself is the baptizer.
  • John answered them all, “I baptize you with water; but he who is mightier than I is coming, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. (Luke 3:16)
Lord Jesus is actively working to accomplish the fullness of the resurrection which will be completed when all His enemies have been destroyed, and everything has been put into subjection under His feet.
  • But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. “For God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things under him, that God may be everything to every one. (1 Corinthians 15:20-28)
Lord Jesus Christ is actively selecting people to be sealed for salvation as He searches the hearts of people.
  • And he who searches the hearts of men knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. (Romans 8:27)
  • For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And before him no creature is hidden, but all are open and laid bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do. (Hebrews 4:12-13)
  • Behold, I will throw her on a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her I will throw into great tribulation, unless they repent of her doings; and I will strike her children dead. And all the churches shall know that I am he who searches mind and heart, and I will give to each of you as your works deserve.(Revelation 2:23)
In the Gospel Message, the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ is portrayed as the Savior and Lord, who is the Judge of all the Earth. Those who repent, when they recognize the righteousness of Lord Jesus Christ compared to their own wicked ways, if genuine in their faith towards Him, will be saved. Those who are not genuine but believe in cheap grace, and are prepared to disregard His commandments, will be rejected, because they have rejected the righteousness of God.

Breaking God’s Commandments Is Like Sport For Many Who Claim Christianity
