Back to the topic on hand. There is only one gospel. We do not want to confuse how to be saved versus the process on how we are saved. Once we have the Holy Spirit he teaches us everything else.
Not true. The lost do not have the Spirit of God. Doesn't stop them from coming to know the Truth simply by reading the Scripture and believing in it.
1 Thessalonians 2:
13. For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of
God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
Romans 10:
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Thing is, 1 Corinthians 2:
14. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are
spiritually discerned.
Is often misunderstood. For Paul is saying that to Believers.
1 Corinthians 3:
1. And I, brethren, could not speak unto you
as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
The issue some have with the assertion that there were two gospels is this same kind of an issue - its truths "are spiritually discerned."
Opposition to it is due to approaching whether or not Scriptures asserts it as true, not from Scripture, rather; from the traditions of men the natural man's resulting carnal mind attempts to discern spiritual things through.
This, because the new Believer's need for the "renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God," Romans 12:2, away from the natural man's carnal mind he was used to looking at things from when he was lost, has remained his general approach, applied now, to "the Bible."
Right off, he begins to be indoctrinated in a combination of his own ideas - the "what this passage means to me" school of "the Bible" - on one hand - "the traditions of men... wise in their own conceits through the ignorance in them" on the other.
And this is handed down from generation to generation.
Or, as Isaiah had lamented - in chapter 29:
13. Wherefore [for this reason] the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught
by the precept of men:
Today, its "oh how I love Jesus; oh how I love the Word."
After which, they open their mouths and all one hears is the notions of men.
And, "boy, oh boy, you need to read this book by Dr such and so!"
Worse, when someone comes along who has actually put in the time in the Word ALONE - those whose minds were long ago clouded over by the endless books of men supposedly about "the Bible" - conclude such an individual is the one actually following some man.
Of course, now the book based experts will go to town with this post.
In short, you wanna get back to my OP, get in His, first.
