In these verses Paul lays out plainly for us what the Gospel is:
1 Cor. 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached nto you which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand. By which also ye are saved. if ye keep in memory what I preache unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died, for our sins according to the scriptures; And the He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
So what is the Gospel? he tells us in v.3-4. The Gospel is the death, burial and resurrection of Christ.

Thank you, Becky for sharing those verses with me. None of the Arminians on this thread would share anything with me after one of them began to challenge the salvation of Calvinists in general and me in particular.
Of course, that does make me wonder what these Arminians think of what we Baptists are doing to reclaim the historic roots of our denomination from the Arminians and those who have watered down our Baptist fire and evangelical zeal.
In the service of the Lord,
Christian.
So Pilgrim, we learn that you are a Baptist-hardshell!
And if you have accepted the Gospel as expressed in 1Cor.15:3-5 you are indeed saved!
Praise God! Brother.
That is the Gospel of Grace not the Kingdom Gospel (Acts 2:38).
As a Baptist, one who rejects water Baptism as anything but a sign of salvation, you can see that there are different Gospels given in scripture.
