Derek Vreeland - The Gospel vs the plan of salvation

I came across yet another group C adherent this week in Derek Vreeland on his blog here. It is essentially another summary of Scot McKnight's book, but has a helpful chart outlining the differences between the gospel and what some call the gospel, but is actually the plan of salvation.

	The Gospel	The Plan of Salvation
1.	Exemplified in 1 Corinthians 15:3-5	Exemplified in the “Four Spiritual Laws”
2.	True to the teachings of the Apostles	True, but not the gospel
3.	A story framed around Jesus	Principles framed out individual human beings
4.	Highlights the Person who is the good news	Highlights our benefits
5.	Focuses on how God made Jesus alive again	Focuses on how we are made right with God
6.	Produces disciples	Produces decisions
7.	Depends on declaration/creativity	Depends on persuasion/rhetoric
8.	Creates a gospel culture	Creates a salvation culture
