=====================================
there is only ONE TRUE CHUCH, may each of us all pray with all of our hearts that we are a
called, elected, and chosen member of His Eternal, Holy Family...
===================================================
it is written,
LUKE 11:13.
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more
shall
your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
ROMANS 8:9.
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.
Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.
GAL. 3:8.
And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith,
preached before the gospel unto Abraham,
saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
we see that the gospel was preached and that Abraham believed God, and it was counted
unto him for righteousness, therefore he was one of God's 'called-chosen-and elect',
for the Spirit of Christ dwelt in all of the prophets...
1PETER 1:2.
Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit,
unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
there is only ONE GOSPEL,
it is written,
HEB. 4:2.
For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them,
not being mixed with faith in them that heard
it.
so in conclusion we see that the Gospel was preached long before the NT came into being, and also
the Apostles preached the Gospel from the Law, the Writings, and the Prophets...
it is written,
LUKE 24:44.
And he said unto them, These
are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you,
that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and
in the prophets,
and
in the psalms, concerning me.
