"The gospel is threefold:
(a) . "That Christ died for our sins." There is the atoning death of Christ, substitution, salvation by blood.
(b). "And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day."
The supernatural , bodily resurrection from the dead was part of Pauls gospel that he preached everywhere and that all Bible Christians received and by which they were saved.
©. That this death and this resurrection were "according to the scripture," is explicitly stated twice in this passage (1 Corinthians 15: 1-4) which defines Pauls gospel. Pauls gospel was always "according to the scriptures," and the very word Scripture means what is written down, the divine writing of the Old Testament, supernaturally inspired." <> Evangelist John R.
