However, you both agree that this 'belief' one has that expresses itself salvifically must represent certain components required to be saved, i.e. that Jesus is Lord, that He rose from the dead, that He is God..........?
I am not saying that one must be a Calvinist.

Craig,
But you did have a grasp of sin and the need for a savior no? Could one be saved without knowing their need?
I will also say that it is my belief that the Gospel compartmentalizes the D.O.G. You may not fully understand it, but generally they are there. I wouldn't call the Gospel systematic theology. Systematic theology is the Gospel laid out in view.
