From John Stott's Commentary on Romans 1

Six fundamental truths about the gospel:

Its origin is God the Father

Its substance Jesus Christ the Son.

Its attestation is Old Testament Scripture

And its scope all the nations.

Our immediate purpose  in proclaiming it is to bring people to the obedience of faith

But our ultimate goal is the greater glory of the name of Jesus Christ.

The good news is the gospel of God, about Christ, according to the Scripture for the nations unto the obedience of faith for the sake of the Name.
