Disciples-visit-tomb.jpgWhat is the gospel?

What I’ve done here is look at every mention of the gospel in Paul’s epistles, searching for clues to the content of the gospel in the statements made about the gospel. If you feel this list comes out of the blue, read the comments here.

I intended to hold this post until after Easter, since I’ve been more or less taking this week off from blogging. (Most of the poetry posts were queued up beforehand, waiting to publish automatically. All I’ve been doing each day is adding the links to other posted poems and correcting my misspellings and other goofs.) But I’ve changed my mind. After all, Easter is, first and foremost about the gospel, the good news that the Son of God came down and lived among us, died for our sins, was buried and then raised again on the third day.
