Description
Gospel = Theology. Without Theology (Study of God) there is no knowledge of the Gospel, and therefore no Gospel at all.The Impossible Gospel [link]

What is there to examine? I thought the Gospel is clearly defined in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 by Paul. Even a dictionary (Merriam-Webster) says that the Gospel is primarily " the message concerning Christ, the kingdom of God, and salvation".
One other thing, I find the description rather odd (a bit of math will illustrate my point):
Gospel = x.
Without x there is no knowledge of x and therefore no x.
What you where trying to describe is "searching of the Scriptures", which can be defined as Theology.
Studying the Bible is not the Gospel.
Neither the 10 commandments nor doctrine of predestination are the Gospel.
As a matter of fact, much of the Bible is not the Gospel (though it can point us towards it).
The Gospel is the message of Christ's death, burial and resurrection for the sins of those who believe it.
Please be careful, because if we equate theology (especially false one) with the Gospel, we're back to Roman Catholicism.
Otherwise, nice piece.

There is so much truth in this message that is often missed. I love how clear the message is.
I love the concept style as well, I would buy some prints of this if I could.

the line from the song "Sweetly Broken" just came to mind after I finished reading the text in this: "You called me out of death, You called me into life. For I was under Your wrath, now through the Cross I reconcile."
