Why is Jesus called the Word?

And that has what to do with the gospel?

Do you know what the gospel Jesus preached was?

You honestly ask that question?? See my answer to Dr. E. as to what good news Jesus preached.

You do get that Christianity is about the person of Jesus Christ, right? It is the personal nature of the faith that so offended Greeks and Jews. For St. Paul did not write “we preach what Christ wrote but “We preach Christ crucified...” The very fact that what a person (yes I know Christ is God) did with His body is what saves us scandalized the world as it still does today.

You can not seperate the humanity of Christ from the divinity of Christ. You can not separate the Gospel from the person of Christ. He is the Word made flesh.
