ROMANS: THE GOSPEL OF GOD

[Doug]

[Romans 1:1-4 KJV] 1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called [to be] an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, 2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) 3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; 4 And declared [to be] the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

The gospel of God is the progressive revelation of God's salvation. It centers on the salvation found in Jesus Christ.

The gospel of God is found in the prophets of scripture. It begins in Genesis:

[Genesis 3:15 KJV] 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

The gospel of God concerns Christ Jesus coming of the seed of David:

[2 Samuel 7:12 KJV] 12 And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.

The gospel of God declares Jesus the Son of God by the resurrection from the dead:

[Psalm 2:7 KJV] 7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou [art] my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

Paul was separated unto the gospel of God. Paul preached the mystery of the gospel, but also what was found in the law and the prophets.

Paul was given the full revelation of the gospel of God.

Yes, all those things. I see the Gospel as the good news that God has successfully fixed the problem started by the Devil and Adam and Eve. He fixed it by presenting an eternal righteousness that could be passed on to fallen men, to make them righteous in a way that their sins are forgiven and they can live again.

Nobody doeth these verse Hebrews 13:5-22; between protestant & catholic leaders were not representing as one body of Christ instead of they condemn each other and showing the immature growth of spirituality similar to Apolos and Paul (1 Corinthians 1:10-29).
