It's all good brother.
The intent of scripture is to perfect you.
2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
Notice scriptures intent is instruction in righteousness, that you may be perfect.
As far as being ministered to, the intent is also perfecting.
Ephesians 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
A ministers job is to minister the word of God that perfects the saint.
Just getting saved is not the end goal of the gospel. Even the word "saved" is Greek sozo, to be made whole, complete, perfected.
It's not a different gospel, it is the teaching of scripture.
