There has been debate on this website about there being different gospels.
This is based on the notion that the Gentiles needed a different gospel than the Judeans.
If indeed there are two different gospels, then is there two separate bodies of Christ?
Of course not, but why two different gospels? are there two different sets of truths or two different saviors, two different lord Jesus Christs?

Ok, thanks.
Why must everyone that is saved be in the Body of Christ?
It is one of three inheritances.
Both Paul and Peter preached the same gospel and inheritance since Pentecost to now, regardless of what judgment will occur to other people.

In the OT there were two groups of people, Jews and Gentiles. In the NT there are two groups of people as well, Christians and non-Christians. In Christ there is only Christian.
Eph. 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14 For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, 15 by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace, 16 and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by it having put to death the enmity.
Gal. 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

You do realize that Paul said this in light of the fact that at Corinth there was a mixed bag of people saying they followed this person or that (1 Corinthians 1:12 KJV)? You do also realize that in order to speak the same thing as in 1 Corinthians 1:10 KJV, the resolution to divisions is to follow Paul (1 Corinthians 4:15-16 KJV)? You should know that by now. Follow Paul (1 Corinthians 4:15-16 KJV)!
Follow Paul only as he follows Christ.

Why would I believe that half of the Body is waiting for the day of atonement (Acts 3:19-21 KJV, 1 John 1:9 KJV, Romans 11:26-27 KJV) while we have now received it (Romans 5:11 KJV, Colossians 2:13 KJV)? God has a purpose for Israel as God has a purpose for the Body! They are separate!
You're a mess! :dizzy:

Yes, indeed.
A case could be made that Paul preached a different gospel in Corinthians than he did in Ephesians!
Grant it, it would be stupid to go there.
Likewise, Peter and Paul served the same God

That's good, but why would anyone suggest that there are two different gospels for this age of grace?
Peter and Paul's and for that matter John's and James' epistles complement each other perfectly.
If someone is going to make a case that Peter and Paul's gospels were different or that the gospel to the Gentiles was different than the gospel to the Judeans, then why not make a case that the epistle to the Corinthians is a different gospel than the one written in the book of Ephesians?

You are correct there isn't. That is the good news. That we all can share in him by grace.

Is every saved person, of all time, in the Body of Christ?
