The Gospel is the testimony of Jesus Christ period.
Exactly, Paul himself had to have heard it from others before him (who were already saved) in order for Paul to be saved.

The Gospel is the testimony of Jesus Christ period.
The Kingdom of God was within the unbelieving wicked Pharisees?And when He was demanded OF THE PHARISEES, when the Kingdom of God should come, He answered THEM and said, “The Kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo, here! or lo, there! for, behold, the Kingdom of God is within YOU.”
Luke 18 KJV
31 Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished. 32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on: 33 and they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again. 34 And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.
They heard, they knew, but it seemed too unreal for them to grasp.
They were in denial for Christ had explained these things to His disciples many times.

Paul was not the first to know.
Christ explained all of the gospel to His disciples--
Luk 24:25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
Luk 24:26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
Luk 24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
Act 1:2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
Act 1:3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
Act 1:4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
Act 1:5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
Madists falsely claim the Body of Christ was established first through Paul, but the Spirit was given first at Pentecost--
Act 1:5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

Indeed . . .
Abel knew about the necessity of the promised death of the Seed, when he offered substitutional blood to God.
Seth knew the Gospel of promise and called upon the name of God in faith.
Noah received the grace of God for his obedience and understanding that God would save Him from judgment due to covenant promises.
Job, who predated even Abraham, believed in the resurrection of the promised Savior and testified to this in Job 19:25-29
These MADist dismiss the entirety of the Scriptures, in order to exercise a gnostic notion that they have received some secret knowledge that no one else in the world ever received until Paul.
It is false teaching, and it takes great patience to continually put up with their efforts to denigrate the Truth of Jesus Christ . . but those of us who know better, must.
For they interfere with the Gospel message and lead others astray with their nonsense . . .
Bears repeating . . .
AMEN!
I believe it's Madist's, not other ones, who cannot expound upon the details of the kingdom.
Where did Jesus say it was?
Hint:
Luke 17:20
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
Luke 17:21
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
"Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished. For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on: And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again. And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken." Luke 18:31-34 KJV
"THEN opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day...." Luke 24:45 KJV
"For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead." John 20:9 KJV
Yes, musty, that is slick of Jeff...real slick...His father the devil taught him to delete verse 20:The Kingdom of God was within the unbelieving wicked Pharisees?
:think:
How then do you interpret Acts 1:16-17?Nag: Judas preached 1 Cor. 15:1-4 KJV.
Another satanic assertion.
A reminder and warning for all of us.
The Kingdom of God was within the unbelieving wicked Pharisees?
:think:
They didn't know.
Then they were made to know, and they knew.
That nails it down tight. Cannot be argued against nor refuted.
Anyone, after reading that, who still claims they preached the DBR the whole time is of the Devil.
He said neither shall they say.
So I'll ask you again, where did he say it was?
Put the joint down, and pay attention:
Luke 17 KJV
20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
Jeff: this "you" in verse 21 is the Pharisees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sssssssssssssssssssss......
Well done..
Isaiah 28:13 KJV But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Why not underline precept?
