"Is There More Than one Gospel?...

Yes, those early Apostles were witnesses to what they had seen and heard. What was missing? The abundance of revelation that the Lord gave to the Apostle Paul.

This was actually a promising thing for the fulfillment of the prophecies concerning his death, burial, and resurrection. Possibly, they overlooked or neglected it and perhaps God did not open their eyes to this truth because they couldn’t handle it yet but, the same writer Luke said that the same Jesus opened their understanding about the matter of his suffering, death, and resurrection. The hidden things were revealed prior to Paul’s so they became witnesses of these things. The point is that they have the same message. The message of the gospel necessitates Christ's death so as to become triumphant.

Luke 24:45-48

KJV_Cambridge(i) 45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, 46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And ye are witnesses of these things.

The disciples did not preach the cross before the resurrection. Scripture states God hid it from them. What then, were they preaching? They were preaching the gospel of the kingdom, same message Jesus was preaching prior to the cross. This message was the good news of Israel’s King and the restoration of their kingdom.

Umm, obviously, Peter and others did not preach the cross, the symbol of suffering Saviour for who can preach the thing that was not done yet. Neither his death nor resurrection but the mere fact that they preached what Jesus told them. They believe salvation is by grace through faith in Christ whom they followed, and Christ is actually the gospel sent. Knowledge of the truth saves no one. It is by trusting in the truth that saves. Precross teaches that people must believe in the Son God who is the personification of the Gospel. He’s the good news after all that brings salvation to whosoever beleiveth on Him (John 3:16, John 1:12 etc). Christ came to seek and to save that which was lost as the scripture says in Luke 19:10. Jesus himself preached his gospel (The gospel of the Son of God which the Bible says or the gospel of the kingdom and this gospel is not only about his earthly rulership but rather his reigning in the hearts of every man that believes on him. Christ saves! They have the gospel to preach and I would add, that the gospel before the cross is not a mere knowledge of the death, burial, and resurrection. Yes, they preach the same gospel that Christ saves!

So, then, precious friend, you are willing to obey the first mention of 'good news to all' without making excuses, for disobeying it?:

the gospel to Cain and Abel!:

Amen.

Point # 1. The Distinctive terminology alone would strongly imply a difference between
these Two Gospels...

The Gospel of the Kingdom is simply God’s good news about His kingdom,
a kingdom that was (and is) to be established on earth with Christ as king
(Jer. 23:5-6; Isa. 2:2-4; 11:1-9). It was prophesied by Israel’s prophets in
the Old Testament and proclaimed “at hand” in the New Testament.

Rightly Divided (2 Timothy 2:15) From “Things That Differ!” (online):

The Gospel of the Grace of God is God’s Good News About His Grace Reigning
like a king on the throne (Rom. 5:20-21). It was a new Revelation that came to
Paul, the apostle, directly from The Resurrected Christ In Heaven
(Gal. 1:11-12; 2:2; Acts 20:24).

...I am in the dark but it would be greatly appreciated if you or someone can explain...

They were looking for a Messiah to deliver them from their enemies. The cross was hidden.

Luke 1
67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:
71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

Luke

The gospel of the kingdom is only for the Jews. It is concerning their promised Messiah who would deliver them from their enemies so they could serve God without fear. It is to be the restoration of the kingdom of Israel.

Matthew 10
5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.

Precious friend, we can do this - it may take some time to prayerfully and
Carefully go through all 12 points that were referred to in the 'link' from
the op #1 - please be very Richly Encouraged And Edified:

Point # 2:

The Gospel of the Kingdom was preached by John the Baptist (Baptizer),
Jesus Christ, and the twelve apostles, and only to the people of Israel
(Matt. 3:2; 4:17,23; 10:5-7; Rom. 15:8).

Rightly Divided (2 Timothy 2:15) From “Things That Differ!” (online):

Yet, John the Baptist, was a Levite through and through, one of the Jobs of the Levite priest was to certify the sacrifice was indeed suitable, without blemish.

Ive been reading this thread and becoming more confused with the more than one gospel position, I guess I dont understand.

Obviously Abel offering the sacrifice had no saving quality to it, so how is it good news unless its the figuratively pointing to Christ which it obviously is, but are not some here saying it is not? but then again even the offering of first fruits points to Christ and His resurrection.

What Im wanting to know from your perspective is does the act of obeying Gods commands in the Old testament equal salvation, does the following of the law equal reward from God or good news, or am I misunderstanding your meaning of Good news?

I suspect this question will be dodged for if you say yes, then you know Im going to ask why did the Lord Jesus need to die and suffer the horrible wrath of God, if there is another way for salvation to take place for us sinful men, aka another Gospel!

And if you say no Im going to ask how then is this good news its terrible news, they need the good news which is exactly what the Lord the apostles and Paul all provided which is the Good news of Jesus providing the way and giving all Salvation. Which the scriptures pointed to all along.

Also in reference to the kingdom of God, the Pharisee's wrongly understood this as an earthly kingdom, they were confused about the Lords hidden meanings when He said things like "My kingdom is not of this world" etc etc or "the kingdom is inside you" etc etc

In other Words the kingdom of God was a spiritual kingdom, it always has been when you read the scriptures with open spiritual eyes, for instance with open eyes when reading the Old testament it has Jesus Christ and the gospel all through them that's why Paul backs up what he says continually with Old testament scripture, and the kingdom Jesus was speaking of was not the millennial kingdom, that future kingdom where Israel will rule is an earthly kingdom, and is not the kingdom of God like unbelieving Israel were hoping for.

But in that earthly kingdom of Israel although like now people will be saved by the gospel, its not a physical kingdom that saves people, there will also be unsaved people there, people will die there, there will be sin there etc etc. So logically people cant be unsaved and be literally in the kingdom of God can they?

To me saying the gospel of the kingdom is a different gospel to Paul's gospel is accidently agreeing with the Pharisees who thought the kingdom of God was their coming earthly kingdom and salvation by following laws, I just mean try and re-read the gospel accounts from the mindset the Lord was talking about the kingdom of God as the heavenly kingdom, and it fits into the giant jigsaw picture scripture is, into one account that agrees with itself from Genesis to Revelation without contradiction.

I have a few more questions, but if you or anyone can clarify if someone can be saved without the cross and the shedding of blood for their sins please acknowledge it if it so and provide the how if you can?

For example can water baptism save the old testament saint is that good news?

I have to admit I stubbornly refuse to follow links you have provided, so I am in the dark but it would be greatly appreciated if you or someone can explain it as I'm getting more confused by reading this thread, or clarify what another gospel is if I've got the wrong end of the stick!

There is one gospel, the good news about Christ and his kingdom. People get confused or are unknowing and mislead, and thereby mislead others. The kingdom here on earth is the church which is the body of Christ, established after his death, and you become part of his body by being baptized into it and added to the church by the Lord himself. Acts 2:38-47.

The Jews were looking for a king to deliver them and that is the natural thinking of every Jew since they look one to deliver them from their enemies but the deliverance by which Jesus did was not only for physical one but also spiritual one. Actually, Christ did not deliver them from the hands of the Romans.

The good tidings that Christ came is for all people.
Luke 2:10
KJV_Cambridge(i) 10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
Luke 2:30-32
KJV_Cambridge(i) 30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, 31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.

Except that John did not function as a priest or Levite at any time. Why? Because God appointed him to be a prophet. Moses too was in the same position. But God made his brother Aaron a priest and he would begin theline of Israelite priests.

Or I could have it all wrong, who knows its not exactly spelt out that John is both the last Aaronic priest and prophet for the changing of the guard, from the old to the new.

There is one gospel, the good news about Christ and his kingdom. People get confused or are unknowing and mislead, and thereby mislead others. The kingdom here on earth is the church which is the body of Christ, established after his death, and you become part of his body by being baptized into it and added to the church by the Lord himself. Acts 2:38-47.

Agreed there is only one gospel, Im not even sure yet what the other gospel is that others are talking about, maybe one day ill work it out

Im more inclined to see the church as positionally part of the kingdom of heaven, while I see the kingdom on earth is in darkness?

When we become born again we are translated from this world into the kingdom of His Son.

Eph 2:4But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
