Here my friends,
God's program with Israel.
They exit Egypt
They receive the 613 Commandments
They fail under Moses
They fail under the Judges
They demand king
Towards the end of the Monarchial phase God begins to send in the prophets that begin foretelling a future kingdom of Israel with a God Man King the Messiah
Isaiah prophecies for the first time that the Messiah would be put to death for the sins of the people
They are led into captivity in Babylon
The prophets prophecy of the Messiah's reign from Jerusalem and the end of the times of the Gentiles
John the Baptist preaches that the Messiah is here and the kingdom will be put into reality
Messiah is born just as was told
Messiah begins ministry of offering the kingdom to Israel
Messiah is rejected by Israel in Mt 12
Messiah institutes a policy of silence and now teaches only his disciples what will happen to the kingdom now that it was rejected but for the nation Messiah only gives them parables so that they can't understand His new mission (only new to them but not to God nor to the prophet Isaiah who predicted all of this).
The disciples are confused as to why the kingdom ain't droppin like its hot right then n there
Messiah explains that He must be killed and the Peter protests
Messiah gives His life for man's sins and is buried and resurrected
The disciples are depressed and confused at this point they had already acknowledged Messiah as God but still want the end to gentile domination
Messiah meets with His disciples and opens their understanding to all of the scriptures that taught of His substitutionary death burial and resurrection from the OT scriptures
Messiah tells disciples to witness of His sacrificial offering for sin to the Jews and to the nations but they must wait for the Spirit
They wait, they are born into the Body of Messiah and
Preach the kingdom again? No
Preach the gospel of Christ and Jews are saved followed by Samaritans followed by Cornelius and the Gentiles
This ain't hard

thanks intoJoy, I had not included Peter's Mt 16 denial when responding. The group's denial is a real case study...in denial!
Don't expect others to believe your tripe. According to your silly idea the Apostles went out to the towns of Israel preaching that the Lord Jesus died for our sins and healing every where. Then all of a sudden the Lord Jesus told them that He was going to die and then all of them just forgot what they had been preaching!
You expect us to believe that they forgot the gospel of their salvation!
? Where is the command to preach the cross here Jerry?
I never said that that can be found in the verses which you quoted. What was being preached there was the "gospel of the kingdom" and not the "gospel of grace." TWO DIFFERENT GOSPELS!
Or perhaps you want to argue that both are the same gospel and that the gospel which the twelve preached at Luke 9:6 is the gospel which declares that Christ died for sins?
Is that your argument?
There is a simple grammatical problem about a 'gospel about the kingdom' There is no such thing. The Greek case system clarifies this. It is a gospel belonging to the kingdom, as a possession of it, not ABOUT. The Greek would have used a different case (there are 5 case options).
The same is true of Gal 2:8-9. There is one Gospel to two targets. The verb actually settles the grammar there.
You are at a disadvantage with the English which is not distinct on these things. But in Gal 2, you might recall what was said in Gal 1. About other gospels.

Man you're like the prodigal son rolling in the mud now
So the "gospel of the grace of God" is not about God's grace?
You and interplanner are joining hands and both of you are rolling in the mud. Grandson, I always worried about the company which you keep and now that company is corrupting your faith.
He's on ignore pop. He rejects the trinity. But you did claim that Jesus sent out the disciples to preach His sacrifice when He sent them out. Go back and edit it if you made a mistake. I won't tell anyone

IntoJ:
who is this written to? I can't imagine Jerry rejecting the trinity, so you must think I do, which is nonsense.
btw, no one is saying that the 70 went out and preached the past tense (had died). They did know that the Lamb would take away sins.
But you did claim that Jesus sent out the disciples to preach His sacrifice when He sent them out. Go back and edit it if you made a mistake. I won't tell anyone
Jerry,
there are 4-5 Greek cases for the English word "of", OK?
As i pointed out, at the time they were preaching a "gospel" they didn't even know that He was going to die.
I didn't say that He sent them out to preach that the sacrifice resulted in the forgiveness of sins. As i pointed out, at the time they were preaching a "gospel" they didn't even know that He was going to die.
I am still waiting for you to tell me what gospel message they were preaching at Luke 9:6. Was it the same gospel which Paul preached that is centered on the fact that Christ died for our sins?
No more stalling. It is time for you to stand up to the plate and answer that question, sonny boy!
