We did address it. You just don't like or maybe don't understand the answer.
Let me put it to you one more way:
1 Cor 15:14. Paul says if Christ is not risen, his preaching and our faith is in vain. This is part of the gospel of grace. Now, why could not Jesus say that? Answer: because when he was preaching it hadn't happened yet. He did say it would happen, but he himself could not preach that or many other things because they (at thr time) were in the future.
Is that really difficult to understand?
So when Jesus talked about the gospel, it was being written out. Paul got to preach it. Understand? Jesus did it; Paul preached it and the grace through faith as a result.
