I have answered numerous times as to what the Good News is. God’s initial grace is not something we get because of what we do. God is always the first cause of our faith and of our charity (works of love). Our faith is nourished in many ways. As a Catholic I believe that I receive sanctifying grace through the sacraments. The grace is also strengthened and brought to light be the hearing of His Word and by obeying it. Part of obeying it includes doing as Christ commanded in the Scripture cited.
And you not liking my answer about the Gospel is not the same as not answering you. Your own private interpretation is so far from historic Christianity I don’t even recognize it.
So you have to DO something in order to get the grace that then motivates good works.. So a work of man motivates God to give grace that then motivates good work..
What is grace? Where is it stored? Can you use it up, so that you need to replenish it?

Actually you still have not told me what the gospel Christ preached was.. and the one I hold is the same one taught by the apostles.. so I suspect my understanding is more "historic" than your..(if i ever do hear it :)
