PETER AND PAUL PREACHED CHRIST DIFFERENTLY

[douge]

Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;

3:20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:

3:21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

Peter preached Christ.

Peter preached Christ would be sent if Israel repented.

Peter preached Christ according to what all the prophets spoke since the world began.

Romans 16:25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

Paul preaches Christ.

Paul preaches Christ according to the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began.

If Paul preached the gospel according to the mystery, kept secret since the world began, Paul could not be preaching the same gospel as Peter, who preached what was spoken of since the world began.

What was preached since the world began can not be the same thing if it was kept secret since the world began.

I do wonder what your motivation in this distortion can be? It's one thing to suggest Paul and Peter preached different aspects of the Truth, but it's quite another to claim that they could not be preaching the same Gospel! Seriously? Contradictions are easily found by those who are intent on finding them. The harmony between these Apostles' teaching has been self-evident for 2000 years.

Peter's documented difference from Paul stemmed from his misapplication of the Law. Beyond that, Peter in fact supported Paul's teaching: "There are some things in them [Paul's letters] that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures. You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, take care that you are not carried away with the error of lawless people and lose your own stability" (1st Peter 3: 16, 17, ESV).

Stability matters.

Sadly, he is at it again. His weird group often peddles this odd stuff.

One would think they would have been the first to notice this 'IF" it was true.

Douge.. who do you think is talking in Acts, Romans etc? That whole book.. who do you think is talking to you?

They gladly gave their life for Christ.

I often hear people who don't know what they are talking about, that Paul preached a gospel different from what John, Peter, and James taught...which is absolute baloney. They used different words to say the same thing, and the fact that people get hung up on that is completely ridiculous. 

Paul said, "I am going shopping."

Peter said, "I am going to the grocery store to pick some things up."

They both said the same thing in essence, and THAT is where we are to be looking...not stuck in a mode of what the exact words were and making them seem to mean different things. Good grief!

If Paul preached the gospel according to the mystery, kept secret since the world began, Paul could not be preaching the same gospel as Peter, who preached what was spoken of since the world began.

What was preached since the world began can not be the same thing if it was kept secret since the world began.

 

Peter spoke to Jews who were already knowledgeable that a Messiah was to come. He was declaring that Christ was the fulfillment of what their prophets had foretold.

Paul was speaking to Gentiles who had no previous knowledge of a coming Messiah and had no prophets. 

Each man was preaching the same gospel. They were just doing so on the level their audience could understand.
