PUBLIC WARNING — DIVIDING THE GOSPEL IS HERESY

To all who have followed the recent exchanges:

This isn’t just debate. It’s deception.
@Doug is preaching a divided gospel. That’s not a small disagreement—it’s soul-threatening error.


---

What He Teaches:

That Israel and the church have separate gospels

That Isaiah 53 applies only to Israel, not to all

That Gentiles are saved apart from the prophets

That Paul preached a new gospel not known before

That the “body of Christ” and the “remnant” are unrelated



---

What the Bible Says:

> “He is our peace… having broken down the middle wall of partition… that He might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross.”
— Ephesians 2:14–16



> “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
— Romans 10:13



> “To Him give all the prophets witness, that through His name whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins.”
— Acts 10:43



> “There is neither Jew nor Greek… ye are all one in Christ Jesus.”
— Galatians 3:28



The cross did not create two gospels—it fulfilled the only one there ever was.
The prophets preached it. Jesus lived it. Paul revealed its fullness—not its origin.


---

To Doug (and those listening):

You’ve been shown Scripture. Over and over.
If you keep dividing Christ’s work, claiming Paul alone had the truth, and treating the body of Christ like it started in a vacuum—you are no longer walking in the truth.

> “Mark them which cause divisions… and avoid them.” — Romans 16:17



> “There remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a fearful looking for judgment…” — Hebrews 10:26



You’ve been warned.
This is not about ego. This is about truth. Souls are on the line.
The gospel does not need dispensational edits—it demands surrender.


---

I will not stay silent.
I stand with the Word, not systems.
With the cross, not categories.
With Christ, not confusion.

> “Cry aloud, spare not. Lift up thy voice like a trumpet.” — Isaiah 58:1

BREAKDOWN: Doug’s Divided Gospel Exposed


---

1. CLAIM: Paul preached a new gospel unknown to the prophets

Doug says the gospel of grace was never revealed before Paul.
He treats Paul’s message as separate from Jesus, the apostles, and all prophetic Scripture.

Refuted by Scripture:

> “To Him give all the prophets witness, that through His name whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins.” — Acts 10:43
“He shall be a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be My salvation unto the end of the earth.” — Isaiah 49:6, quoted by Paul in Acts 13:47



✅ Truth: The prophets foretold Christ’s universal salvation. Paul expounded, not invented.


---

2. CLAIM: Isaiah 53 only applies to Israel

Doug limits Christ’s substitutionary death to Israel alone.

Refuted by Scripture:

> “The Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” — Isaiah 53:6
Paul quotes Isaiah 53:1 in Romans 10:16 to support the gospel going to Jew and Gentile.



✅ Truth: “Us all” includes all humanity. Paul’s usage confirms this.


---

3. CLAIM: Gentiles are saved separately from Israel

Doug claims Gentiles are saved by a different message than Jews, separate from Israel's covenant promises.

Refuted by Scripture:

> “That He might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross.” — Ephesians 2:16
“There is no difference between Jew and Greek.” — Romans 10:12



✅ Truth: No division remains—Christ made one body, one people, one gospel.


---

4. CLAIM: Galatians and the Body of Christ cannot apply to Peter or the Jewish remnant

Doug tries to keep Galatians out of any first-century Jewish context to preserve his dispensational line.

Refuted by Scripture:

> “For ye are all one in Christ Jesus.” — Galatians 3:28
Peter called Gentiles “my brethren” and said they received the same gift — Acts 11:15–18



✅ Truth: The early Jewish believers and Gentile believers were part of the same Spirit-baptized body.


---

5. CLAIM: The church is not “spiritual Israel”

Doug denies any continuity between the church and the people of God across redemptive history.

Refuted by Scripture:

> “If ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed.” — Galatians 3:29
“Not all Israel are of Israel.” — Romans 9:6
“They are not all children because they are Abraham’s seed.” — Romans 9:7



✅ Truth: The Church is grafted in to the promises—not replacing Israel, but fulfilling what God intended.


---

6. CLAIM: Two gospels exist—one for Israel, one for the Church

Doug preaches a bifurcated gospel that splits the cross.

Refuted by Scripture:

> “There is not another [gospel]: but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.” — Galatians 1:7
“Preach the gospel to every creature.” — Mark 16:15
“Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures.” — 1 Corinthians 15:3



✅ Truth: There is one gospel, one blood, one redemption—preached to all, foretold by the prophets, fulfilled by Christ, declared by Paul.


---

Conclusion:

Doug is not rightly dividing—he’s wrongly separating.
He builds walls the cross already tore down.
His theology exalts Paul above Christ and Scripture rather than seeing Paul as a faithful steward of what was always true.
