CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTORY. In the investigation of any subject, it is of first importance that the terms employed be thoroughly understood; hence, I begin the subject in hand by asking and answering the question, What is the Gospel? The definition to the term I shall derive from the scriptures; not from one passage alone, but from the consideration of a number of passages. The Apostle Paul, in defining the Gospel, calls it: "The power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth".[A] [Footnote A: Rom. i: 16.]
