15:2a By this gospel you are saved,

You (plur.) are being saved by this gospel,
-or-
Because of this good news God saves you

15:2b if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you.

provided that you (plur.) keep the message I preached to you.
-or-
so long as you continue to rely/depend on what I taught you.

15:2c Otherwise, you have believed in vain.

If you (plur.) do not ⌊keep it⌋ you have trusted it for nothing.
-or-
If you do not ⌊trust God firmly⌋, you will receive no benefit from it.
