I have quoted the passage so much in this thread I have the chapter and verse memorized because I have repeatedly recited the verse in this thread replying to you. Not once, not twice, but at least a half a dozen times now

1 Corinthians 15:1-4 - read the Bible
Is that it?
- Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures
- he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures

Is that your good news gospel? (where's the good news?)

1 Corinthians 15:1-4 NIV
Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you,
which you received and on which you have taken your stand.
2 By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you.
Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance[a]:
that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,

STV doesn't even know why he's in a Christian forum attacking the Bible just like Satan!
List the verses that you believe is the Gospel for today.
Hint Gal 1:11-12 >> Eph 1:13, 1 Cor 15:1-4 :)

There is still no concise definition of what the one gospel is.

Repent is the key command of the Gospel.

Repent is what must be obeyed.

Repent means to turn to God and submit to Him as LORD.

If we are called to turn to God, then by default we are called to turn away from Satan as our lord.

The way we do this is to confess Jesus Christ as Lord.


This is what Jesus sent Paul to do.


So I said, ‘Who are You, Lord?’ And He said, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you. I will deliver you from the Jewish people, as well as from the Gentiles, to whom I now send you, to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.’

“Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance. Acts 26:15-20

If we were trying to prove the only one gospel claim in a court of law, would we win?
There seems to be a lack of evidence.

cc: @Hazelelponi
Yes, I think we'd have a better than 50% chance of winning. Historically, the church has been very favorable to statements of "only one."

Paul:
Ephesians 4:4 [There is] one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who [is] above all, and through all, and in you all.

The Nicene creed:
"One God"
"One Lord Jesus Christ"
"One holy catholic church"
"One baptism for the forgiveness of sins"

The Reformation:
"Sola Scriptura"
"Sola Christus"
"Sola Gratia"
"Sola Fide"
"Soli Deo Gloria"

Lawyers love statements of exclusivity. They make judgments easy. :)

I think this hits at it. Repentance brings us into unity with Christ, under His authority in the Kingdom of God.

Mark 1:14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

A 50/50 chance? Wow.
This is a pretty shaky doctrine.

The Bible says there's one. (if that) *
But doesn't identify it.

* Could be referring to the gospel given ONLY to the Galatians.

Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
Yes!
What gospel was that?
Paul is referring to God's promise to Abraham to make Him a "Father of Nations" which the New Testament interprets as referring to the adoption of Gentiles. This comes back to the same gospel - of the unity of God and man when man repents and accepts God's authority.

What was the gospel given to A&E in the garden?

What was the response to the good news?
They taught their children the correct method of worship. Cain thought he could do things his way.

God also taught Abraham the gospel. Not a different gospel, just more explicit information, nuanced to their circumstance.

“And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together. ”
Genesis 22:8 KJV

There's only one gospel, presented differently to meet the needs of the individual or group hearing it. But the foundational concept remains constant.

"No-one comes to the Father except by Me". Jesus.

Gal 1:11-12 Yet THE UNIQUE Gospel that applies today was taught to ONLY Paul by Christ.
Eph 1:13, 1 Cor 15:1-4 is that Gospel which THOUGH similar is not the same as Peter Acts 2:38-45, Acts 8:17

the go-to tactic of satanism is always to:
#1 - get you to question your own understanding of your child-like faith in GOD
#2 - then move on to get you to question the accuracy/authenticity and INSPIRED Word of GOD
#3 - then move on to = everyone has their own opinion
#4 - and there is more then one mountain top to GOD
but have you noticed the sheep DO not heed his tatics nor his ministirs in wool who preach his tactics .
FOR JESUS HAS THE SHEEP . HE does lead them and guide them and they follow HIM , not wayward men of darkness .
And no matter how well those decieves can pile on the wool outward appearance
the sheep do not fall for it . cause , oh yes , CAUSE JESUS HAS THE SHEEP .
For this cause was i born and for this cause came i into the world , TO TESTIFY OF THE TRUTH .
MY SHEEP hear MY VOICE and the voice of a stranger they wont heed .

Jesus is not just a way , HE IS THE ONLY WAY TO GOD THE FATHER .
And GOD the FATHER only draws one TO THE SON . not muhammed , not budda , not oh just love and do g ood works
BUT TO JESUS who by HIM we have good works .
JESUS is the RESSURECTION . HE is the LIFE . And ecumenical interfaith and its braod believe as thou wilt

The prophets are dead , Abraham is dead
AND YE say that if a man eat of me HE will never die
WHO makest thou thyself .
And now a word .
BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS , I AM . I sure never heard a prophet one make that cliam . nor any king or man .
In fact i would like to simply say
That before all that was created was , I AM always was . And BY HIM were all things created that were created .
Ever get the feeling Many now preach another jesus that has bowed the knee to man and the false religoins .
AND YET THE ALL T HINGS were created BY HIM . That JESUS dont work in unsion with false gods
and fairy tale buddas and muhammeds and etc . CAUSE LIGHT does not CO EXIST with darkness . IT EXPOSES darkness .
SO here is the two words i have for this finding common ground . NO DEAL
Cause i dont sit under and find common ground WITH darkness , with satan , with all his false religoins .
WE PREACH JESUS , not broad paths and cuymbia hug a t hons .

Repent of what ?

Not what but “who”.


Repent means turn to God.

If we are called to “turn to God” (in submission to Him as Lord) then we are called to turn away from Satan as our lord.

The way we obey the Gospel command to repent is to confess Jesus as our Lord.


  • with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.


that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written:
“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace,
Who bring glad tidings of good things!”
But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “LORD, who has believed our report?”
Romans 10:9-16


I will deliver you from the Jewish people, as well as from the Gentiles, to whom I now send you, to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.’

“Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance. Acts 26:17-20
