What does the Bible say about knowledge of the Gospel?

The Scripture emphasizes both knowledge of the Gospel and belief in its truths. While knowledge is necessary, it is not sufficient on its own. As discussed in the article, one can have an understanding of Gospel propositions without truly believing them, as seen in those who have contended for the faith but later denied it. The distinction is important: knowledge without faith does not equate to salvation. True believers will affirm the truths of the Gospel at God's appointed time, motivated by the Holy Spirit.
