It is NOT at all. We've all had enough of this
junk, Bart. PROVE it or shut up.
You are not in touch with reality.
Accepting a free gift is NOT WORKS RIGHTEOUSNESS!
PERIOD!
Get over Luther or whatever you have.

This is true. God saves one when they believe in Christ.
No matter how often you rave it will not change the Gospel
one whit.

It most certainly is NOT "loving God above all things!"
You either cannot or will not understand plain language!
> The Gospel is about what Jesus does, not about what we do.
The Gospel is truly what Christ did, but it is applied only to
those who believe.
And it is not about what "Jesus does," it is about what JESUS DID!
As Paul said,
1 Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I
preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By
which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you,
unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all
that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to
the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third
day according to the scriptures:
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the
power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first,
and also to the Greek.
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the
gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be
saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Acts 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt
be saved, and thy house.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and
shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou
shalt be saved.
The above is the Gospel according to Paul. Not at all like the non-gospel of
Bart.
