Barring that, Dr. Dever's view of the gospel is well-publicized, starting with <a href="http://marks.9marks.org/Mark3/LessonD/Slide1of6" rel="nofollow">the 9 Marks website</a>.

Does he ever clarify which specific "good news" he is referencing? The Apostle Paul declared his "gospel" in 1 Corinthians 15.1-4. 1) His gospel is not according to man (Galatians 1.1 & 11) 2) His gospel involves the proclamation of the living resurrected Christ (Romans 16.25 & 2Timothy 2.8) 3) His gospel is illuminating of the glory of Christ (2Corinthians 4.4 & Hebrews 1.5) 4) His gospel involves the grace of God in Christ (Galatians 1.6 & 2.21) 5) His gospel was announced of necessity and constrained by the love of Christ (1 Cor. 9.16 & 13.1-3) What precisely is “the Gospel” Dever is referring to in his polemic?

The Apostle Paul declared his “gospel” in 1 Corinthians 15.1-4.

1) His gospel is not according to man (Galatians 1.1 & 11)
2) His gospel involves the proclamation of the living resurrected Christ (Romans 16.25 & 2Timothy 2.8)
3) His gospel is illuminating of the glory of Christ (2Corinthians 4.4 & Hebrews 1.5)
4) His gospel involves the grace of God in Christ (Galatians 1.6 & 2.21)
5) His gospel was announced of necessity and constrained by the love of Christ (1 Cor. 9.16 & 13.1-3)
