1 Corinthians 2:1-2 KJVA “And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.”

So there's this thing - as Christians in theory at least we should agree on most things - speak one Truth in love. Yet oftentimes it's quite different - we all disagree on something whether it's baptism, tithing, Calvinism, original sin, Bible versions, women preaching, eucharist etc.
Yet by focusing on such details we sometimes forget the most important part - the gospel. The salvation. So, especially with strangers - make sure they are saved first and know the gospel.
From the verse above we can see Paul's laser like focus on the gospel.
To my personal surprise - many Christians couldn't formulate it clearly. So to follow my own advice here it is again:
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJVA “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
