That's nice but my concern is that @Journeyman might say that Paul's Gospel is not Jesus's Gospel. That's why I asked him the question in post# 39.

It's a great thing that we can trust Jesus, no matter what the circumstance. Jesus didn't fear even being killed and teaches us not to be either.
He said whatever is spoken in secret would be revealed to all, because people who hated him were conspiring against him. He said God knows what's going on with us at all times What a relief it is not to have to live in fear! (From Lk.12:1-7

I found another statement by Jesus about not living in fear.
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. Jn.14:1
He said this the evening he was arrested. That in itself is incredible, because the Lord was then only a very short time from being severly beaten and executed. Comforting his followers. Thanks dear Lord.

If you're sure you're done here, I'll try to get the new thread started tomorrow. I was going to start it today, but I wasn't sure you were done here. Tomorrow I have a lot of work to do. (Not any work that can save me). But if you're sure you're done here, I'll try to get the new thread started tomorrow.
Fear not, daughter of Sion, lo, thy king doth come, sitting on an ass' colt.'
And these things his disciples did not know at the first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were having been written about him, and these things they did to him. Jn.12:15-16
To know that the Owner of the universe came this way is beyond words, but words are what we use on a typewriter.
The Apostles must have had a great time rereading the OT.

Gospel means "good news", Scripture recorded various good news that God gave to different people during different times:
The confusion that many Christians have is, since their churches love to preach from the 4 gospels of Matthew to John, as well as early Acts, where the 3rd gospel was still valid, they try to combine the teachings together with Romans to Philemon, which leads to many contradictions.
- God told Abraham the good news he will have many descendants like the stars of heaven and the sand in the shore in genesis 15
- God told David the good news that a descendant from him will be ruling from his throne in 2 samuel 7
- God told Israel the good news, after about 400 years of complete silence, that this descendant from David is finally here in the flesh, to usher them into that promised kingdom of heaven on earth in Luke 1
- Finally after Israel the nation rejected the messiah for the final time by stoning Stephen, God announced to the whole world the good news thru the apostle Paul that, all of us, gentiles or Jews can be saved thru believing in Jesus death burial and resurrection (Romans 11:11, 1 cor 15:1-4)

How often they provoked Him in the wilderness
And grieved Him in the desert Psa.78:40
the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things, laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
Lk.11:53-54
being grieved for the hardness of their hearts Mk.3:5
Our great Lord Jesus put up with a lot.

Isa. 53 is showing how Jesus comtinued showing the love of God to his enemies while his Father was testing him. He remained true to himself. God knew this world would hate his Son, so Peter says,
Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: Acts 2:23
And when the people Peter spoke to heard how they had sinned against Jesus,
they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men andbrethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:37-38

this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me Isa.29:13
The biggest example of this in the scriptures is how the religious leaders perceived themselves as people who loved God, yet hated Jesus.
This is really a big key to properly understanding the sacrifice of Jesus.
