MATTHEW 8:12 CAST OUT

[Doug]

You are confusing preaching to a culture with not preaching the cross.

So you are saying that Peter's gospel was only to Jewish culture and then say there is not one gospel to Jews and one to Gentiles

 

[Doug]

The gospel was the same- that the death and resurrection of Jesus had to be believed to be saved.

You said...........He didn't need to preach the cross

You said Peter didnt need to preach the cross and now you say he did

 

[Doug]

However, preaching to the Jews was a vastly different message than preaching to the Gentiles. The Jews knew the Scriptures and so Peter could argue from the OT to the Jews. Paul could not. The gentiles had little to no knowledge of the OT so He used a different methodology to preach to Gentiles. It was not two diffewrent messages. But two very different ways of presenting Jesus as Messiah.

Paul;s epistles are filled with OT references, and he says he preaches Christ from prophets.....................[Rom 16:25-26 KJV] 25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, 26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:

You are right saying Peter preached Jesus as Messiah because that was his gospel, the Jews had to believe on his name
Paul preached Jesus was Christ the Son of God as well but also the cross

 

[Doug]

He didn't need to preach the cross. Most if not all of the audience after Pentecost knew of the crucifixion.

But he did preach the cross but it was to convict them for crucifying him

[Act 2:36 KJV] 36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

Peter told them who it was they crucified,,,,,Israel had to believe Jesus was Christ to be saved

 

[Ronald Nolette]

Which is the same gospel the other 11 preached after Pentecost.

Here above you said the 11 apostles preached the same gospel as Paul
Paul perched the cross
[1Co 1:18 KJV] 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
[Gal 6:14 KJV] 14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
[Col 1:20 KJV] 20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.

Agreed 100% The gospel was the same, but how it was presented to differing ethnos was very different.

[Act 2:23 KJV] 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

Here Peter is not preaching the cross but he is convicting Israel for his crucifixion

[Act 2:30 KJV] 30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

Peter was not preaching that Christ was raised for our justification but he was raised to sit on David's throne in the kingdom on earth

Pulling a verse out of context and saying "see he is not preaching the cross" is very childish. Peter got to it, may be not to your liking but He did. You are implying that all those Jews did not get saved because they never heard Jesus died and rose for theis.-- Foolishness.

[Act 10:43 KJV] 43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Again faith in his name

Same thing Paul preached in Romans 10!

Paul and Peter acknowledged they had separate valid apostleship and preached different gospels in Galatians 2:7-8
Paul ministered to Peter's disciples but did not give them his gospel.........[Rom 15:20 KJV] 20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

Your reading skills betray you.

7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;

8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.

Same gospel, different way of presenting it. If not then Peter and the 11 were cursed for they preached another gospel. Galatians 1. YOu stumble and cannot see the forest for the trees.

 

[Doug]

Agreed 100% The gospel was the same, but how it was presented to differing ethnos was very different.

So the gospels cant be the same if they preach different gospels to accommodate other ethnic cultures
That is a way to explain way that they preached different gospels
If the words spoken are different that is because they are different
Why is it so threatening to acknowledge there is more than one gospel

 

[Doug]

Pulling a verse out of context and saying "see he is not preaching the cross" is very childish

It is not taking it out of context ......that is a way to diffuse having to acknowledge what is said

 

[Behold]

Paul perched the cross
[1Co 1:18 KJV] 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
[Gal 6:14 KJV] 14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
[Col 1:20 KJV] 20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.

Exactly.

[Doug]

You are implying that all those Jews did not get saved because they never heard Jesus died and rose for theis.-- Foolishness.

You are implying this not me
Anyone is saved only by believing what God says
Those Jews who believed what Peter was preaching, which was the word of God given to them, were saved

 

[Sister-n-Christ]

Believing Jews will enter the kingdom on earth.......they are not of the body of Christ.......Jews who believe the gospel preached by Pau; are in the body of Christ

How about Jews who believe the gospel preached by Jesus? Are they in the body of Christ?

 

[Doug]

Same thing Paul preached in Romans 10!

[Rom 10:13 KJV] 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

In Romans 9 thru 11 he is dealing with the believing remnant of Israel and the Gentiles who believed the preaching of Peter.................[Rom 11:5 KJV] 5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

Romans 10:13 is talking about Israel and the day of the Lord come upon them...................[Joel 2:30-32 KJV] 30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. 31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. 32 And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

Paul did not preach remission of sins was only thru his name

 

[Doug]

Same gospel, different way of presenting it. If not then Peter and the 11 were cursed for they preached another gospel.

Galatians 2:7 says gospels OF not to as you are reading it......that means they are different gospels
Look at this verse as an example..........................[Mat 4:23 KJV] 23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people......................when it says the gospel OF the kingdom it is descriptive

Peter was not accursed.....Paul recognized the validity of Peter's apostleship and the gospel he preached, and they agreed to separate Their apostleships

 

[Doug]

How about Jews who believe the gospel preached by Jesus? Are they in the body of Christ?

No they are in the church the believing remnant of Israel who will inherit the earthly kingdom
