Nope,you're wrong there. Gospel means the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Gospel does not mean good new.

That arguement you will have to take up with Noah Webster who knew literally every chapter and verse in the Bible. :>}

Gos"pel (?), n. [OE. gospel, godspel, AS. godspell; god God + spell story, tale. See God, and Spell, v.]

1. Glad tidings; especially, the good news concerning Christ, the Kingdom of God, and salvation.

And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom. Matt. iv. 23.

FYI In 1 Cor 15:1-8, Paul gives readers a lucid discription of what the Gospel is. Happy New Year!
