Is confessing Jesus and believing in His resurrection the Gospel?
Yes. Romans 10:9-10 identifies the Gospel as confessing with the mouth the Lord Jesus and believing in the heart that God raised Him from the dead, resulting in salvation. This matches Paul's Gospel: Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again according to the Scriptures.
Les explains that the Gospel is the message Paul delivered and received: Christ, the Son of God and Creator, went to the cross, shed His blood, paid the price of redemption, and rose from the dead. Paul wrote that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, was buried, and arose again the third day according to the Scriptures. Les then points to Romans 10:9-10: if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. That confession and belief is the Gospel.
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.
