[Psalm 51:17]

The Absurdity of Two Gospels - One of Paul and one of Peter...

When Jesus told the disciples to preach the gospel and baptize, then Paul must have come along and preached another gospel, while claiming there was no other gospel. He would have preached first in the synagogues to the Jews.  He would have to preach a different gospel not recorded, while the Gentiles listened. Some of them heard and believed. At which time he must have next preached to them the Gentile gospel. When Paul went to the synagogues first he would first need to preach Peter's gospel, then unpreach it to the Gentiles.  When Jesus told the disciples to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, they would have understood Him to mean the "Jewish" version to only the Jewish creatures. When Paul came to the men of Jerusalem with a completely NEW gospel they had never heard before, they must have accepted him and his new gospel that Jesus did not teach during His three years of ministry.  When Paul baptized Gentiles at Corinth, then he really must not have done it.  When he preached repentance, and fruit meet for repentance, that would be completely different than Peter, who also preached repentance,  because Peter must have preached salvation by works, not faith. Peter, therefore, preached the salvation that Paul spent his life arguing NEVER existed and doomed the Jews for they did not seek salvation by faith. These are the absurdities of believing two gospels in the face of the apostle Paul who said anyone who brings another gospel (though he states there is NO OTHER) let him be damned of God.  Yet, in all this, we are to believe that Peter and Paul preached two ways to get to God, one by faith and another by works and faith.  Paul said there was no such mixture possible (Rom 11:6), yet we are to believe that the apostles were busy preaching another gospel than brought upon them the condemnation of God.  All this we must believe if we are to accept that there ever was a gospel for the Jews and a different plan of salvation to for the Gentiles.  I will leave you to consider two small words that dispel this entire false teaching: "For I am not ashamed of THE gospel of Christ: for IT is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the _Jew first, and also to the Greek."
