"About what? "Exactly ,you might ask .
Well this is the point.
About what? ,doesn't seem to be the question being asked by some .
If I come home from work and my wife says " I have good news " unless I know what she is referring to ,I'm having to guess what it is . " Good news " has to be qualified as to what it is . Just simply saying ' good news 'with no explaining as to what it is doesn't help anyone . This is what some seem to be doing when they say there's only one Gospel . Their saying there's only 'one good news ' . But about what? The bible , yes Jesus , ok. But what about Jesus and is this just a universal agreed upon collection of things about Jesus . Which clearly is not agreed upon . So being generic or simply saying " the gospel is Genesis to revelation " ,is this helpful ?
By saying There is only one Gospel without qualifying is begging the question . And when you qualify which scripture says that the description you claim is the ONE good news IS ?
I believe today we have good news . And its not generic, general or non specific. Its defined as Rom 1 .16
explained in 1 cor 15 -1-4 and appropriated by Rom 10 . 9-15 .

The good news for today is
Its defined as Rom 1 .16
explained in 1 cor 15 -1-4 and appropriated by Rom 10 . 9-15 .
and is explained in Eph 1.13-14 ..1 cor 1.21 .
But notice what it involves and doesn't involve? And notice what a person doesn't have to do and what they have to do ?
