How do we know the gospel is whole and undivided?

The preacher emphasizes that the gospel is one whole and undivided truth. He draws an analogy between the divided child in the story of Solomon and the gospel message. Just as a divided child is lifeless, a divided gospel lacks the power to save. The entire counsel of God must be proclaimed in its fullness. This means that every aspect of the gospel, from election to justification, must be accepted as true. Accepting only parts of the message compromises its integrity and leads to spiritual death. Thus, a true understanding of the gospel is that it is complete, reflecting the holiness and fullness of God's redemptive work.
