How is this possible?
Jesus commanded that the gospel be preached to all, and said that whoever believes and is baptized will be saved. This is known to all who have taken on the task of leading people to God. But does everyone truly know what the gospel is? Let's think about this.

In the book of the prophet Isaiah, the Lord refers to the gospel in this way:

“How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who proclaims peace, who brings good tidings, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, ‘Your God reigns!’” Isaiah 52:7.

So the good news is also called peace, good, and salvation.

And Paul, the apostle used by God to explain to us, formerly Gentiles, the things of the ancient scriptures, says that the gospel IS THE POWER OF GOD for the salvation of everyone who believes. First for the Jew, and also for the Greek. Romans: 1:16.

And this is in accordance with what the Lord said when He said that whoever believes in the gospel will be saved. But some who call themselves evangelists want to exclude the true gospel from the process of salvation and replace it with generic things found in recent scriptures.

Now, Paul also says that it is in the gospel that the righteousness of God is revealed. And he also says that grace reigns through it. But what is the righteousness of God? Punishment? No. It is His Law or Commandments, the Decalogue. See.
For all your commandments are righteousness. Psalm 119:172, last part.

However, this text is not written this way in all versions of the Bible. Some scriptures have been translated differently and say that the commandments are righteousness, without the definite article “the” preceding the word righteousness, or that the commandments are righteous, giving a vague understanding of their true meaning.

As we mentioned in the text we wrote about the gospel, which we titled “The gospel for all,” it has seventeen names. But those who do not understand this suggest that there may be more than one gospel, and so they speak of “the gospel according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, etc.”

They also claim that God saves whomever He wants. And that sounds arbitrary to me. Because God levels everyone through a single rule, the gospel, which is His power, which the apostle Paul names Christ in Romans 10:4-8. I discussed this in the text I titled “Who is Christ?”

Therefore, gentlemen who claim to be evangelists, examine the Scriptures, doing as God commands through Solomon in Proverbs 2:1-4. In order to achieve what is in verse 5. So that you do not run in vain or find the door closed at the end, and the message “I do not know you,” since those known to God are those who know Him by keeping His commandments. 1 John 2:3.
