Paul marveled that the Galatians so soon wanted to switch to a different gospel, which is really not another gospel at all, because it has been set aside until the tribulation. Christ's heavenly gospel was being perverted by the gospel of the kingdom. Paul warns the body of Christ concerning any other gospel. Paul tells us how important the gospel that he preached is for our salvation, it is the gospel of the grace of God, and it is the only gospel for the body of Christ and the world today. When I say Paul's gospel I am speaking of the gospel that Christ gave to Paul alone. Scripture calls that gospel the gospel of the grace of God, which is the gospel of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery, therefore Paul calls it my gospel.

Read the next seven verses and they should remove all doubts about what gospel we should know and practice.

Galatians 1:8-12 and 2Corinthians 4:3-4

v8. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

v9. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

v10. For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

v11. But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

v12. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

My friend, hopefully in Christ, I do not see how God can make it any more clear  to us than 2Corinthians 4:3-4, if Paul's gospel be hid it is hid to them that are lost. Think about this statement I pray that it is not in vane, it appears to be a strong warning to those who would neglect the writings of the apostle Paul. I haven't heard very many pastors today that preach anything but the four gospels and the red letter portion of their Bibles. These areas are very important for our learning but it is not our mail. Paul's letters are our mail and we should read them and heed them. Because without Paul's letters we are lost.

2Corinthians 4:3-4

v3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

v4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Paul calls for anathema on any man or angel who preach any other gospel than the gospel that he, Paul preached. So as not to confuse anyone! Paul preached the gospel of the grace of God, which is the gospel of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret, hid in God before the world began. Paul's gospel did not come to him by men, but, it came by revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ in heaven. I just can not understand how anyone could say, Paul's gospel is just a different style of delivery but, it is the same message as Peter's. Now, if that is what you choose to believe, I'm sorry, but, nothing could be further from the truth. Really I am not here to refute what others say because we will all answer for the way we handle the truth in God's site.

Paul's gospel is altogether different, because God appointed it for an altogether different dispensation. In case you are wondering! A dispensation is a period of time when God changes the way He deals with mankind. The apostle Paul's gospel of the grace of God is pure grace, with out the law. I am reminded that if Paul's gospel is hid, it is hid to them that are lost! Please be sure to read and understand 2Corinthians 4:3-4! You should read these two verses over several times, slowly for understanding.

the body of Christ is not under the law!

Romans 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Galatians 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Two different Gospels:

The gospel of the kingdom is fully under the law, and the great commission is fully under the law. The great commission was given to the twelve, it was never intended for the apostle Paul and the church the body of Christ, our commission is different, it is one of reconciliation and you will find it in 2Corinthians 5:16-21. The members of the church which is His body were never under the Mosaic law, therefore we have nothing to do with the kingdom gospel, but we can learn from it.

It is impossible to mix law and grace. The body of Christ's have heavenly promises, while the Jews promises are earthly. We do not share the same dispensation with Israel. Their dispensation is the dispensation of law, and our dispensation is the dispensation of the grace of God, pure grace. Don't you know?--- If Paul's gospel is hid, it is hid to them that are lost. (2Corinthians 4:3). Please read all of Paul's epistles in a different light, note to whom they are written, study them rightly divided because they are written to and for you and me, we are the body of Christ.

My friend hopefully in Christ, the church the body of Christ is made up mostly of Gentiles, but there are some Jews there as well. Our apostle is the apostle Paul! When we believe the gospel 1Corinthians 15:1-4 then we are baptized into the body of Christ. We are sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise to await the day in which our bodies will be redeemed. Neglect not the Pauline epistles, because our mail starts with Romans ending with Philemon.  That is where we will find Gods Word for you and me. This Word is called the gospel of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery. This is the only gospel for the world today!

Don't you know that all Scripture is written for our learning, but, only Paul's gospel is for our appropriation, we are warns in second Timothy 3:7 to the dangers of ever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Below you will find the True Gospel in a nut shell. Romans 16:25 which tells us whose gospel this is. And Romans 11:13 tells who Paul is.

1Corinthians 15:1-4 and Romans 16:25

You will see these 6 verses many times throughout these studies!

v1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

v2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

v3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

v4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Romans 16:25. Now to him that is of power to establish 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,

Let's except God's free gift of eternal life through Christ's death burial, resurrection and ascension back to the Father's right hand. 1Corinthians 15:1-4 and Romans 16:25 are good instructions. Believe what God says, take Him at His Word!  For our salvation the most important questions to ask is:-- Do I believe and understand Paul's gospel?  If we do not believe nor understand Paul's gospel, God plainly tells us we are lost because the god of this world has blinded our minds?

Who is our apostle?

This verse very clearly shows us that the apostle Paul is God's chosen apostle to and for the Gentiles. Furthermore the twelve were apostles of Israel only, but their message has been set aside until the tribulation!

Romans 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify my office:

The book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ was given to the apostle John for the future of the nation Israel; it is not to the church the body of Christ. We have to understand this; and rightly divide the Word of Truth starting with the apostle Paul. The other writers, wrote under the law for the Jews only. Paul wrote to the church the body of Christ under pure grace. Understand that for the Jews only does not mean that we do not to read them because they are for our learning. See Romans 15:4.

Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

Please note: Paul's writings are without the Mosaic law. The law was given to the nation Israel alone. Therefore the Lord Jesus Christ tells us, you are not under the law, you are under pure grace. The other writers of Scripture from Moses to John wrote under the law. The Lord Jesus Christ's earthly ministry was under the law. The law was the theme of Scripture until the apostle Paul was saved in Acts 9 and Christ appointed him as the apostle of the Gentiles. Paul ministered to the one new man that Christ made of Jew and Gentile alike. Peter and the eleven plus the little flock are not part of the one new man, they are strictly kingdom believers.

The theme for salvation changed with the appointment of the apostle Paul as the apostle of the Gentiles; to the finished work of Christ's on the cross. The little flock of the kingdom church had its beginning with the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ but, all of it's members are Jews that believed that Jesus was the Messiah. They functioned completely under the Mosaic law; Christ was born under the law and He followed the law to the letter; Christ did not come to destroy the law, he came to fulfil it, Christ's twelve apostles held fast to the law until their end. The temple was destroyed in 70 A.D. and the nation was scattered into every nation under heaven.

The law was finally set aside by God in Acts 28:28 and it was put on hold until the tribulation. It will be reinstated during the tribulation when the gospel of the kingdom is preached in all the world. Acts 21:17-20 demonstrates that the eleven plus James the Lord's half brother still practiced the law and they never stopped. Only Paul's Converts were not to practice the law.

Acts 21:17-20 And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

v18 And the day following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present.

v19 And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.

v20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto Paul, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law

Now read Galatians 5:18. In this new dispensation of the grace of God the rules have changed. This new dispensation is for the growing of the church the body of Christ, Jews can be included as well.

Galatians 5:18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.

From Acts 9:17 through Acts 28:28 God had two programs, operating at the same time; this is another thing that cause some men to wring their hands crying no! no! no! While the Holy Spirit says, yes! yes! yes! The Jewish dispensation of law quickly faded away; with Acts 7 with the stoning of Steven. Leaving only God's new program under the leadership of the apostle Paul (the dispensation of the grace of God), for the body of Christ.  This program is now for all of mankind. That is why Paul told the Galatians if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law.

Furthermore in the past only the Jews were under the law, but the whole world was made guilty by that law. The Galatians wanted to be under the Mosaic law perhaps because pure grace sounded to easy to be true. Look what Paul says about the law.

Romans 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

But now, through Christ's death burial and resurrection God has reconciled the whole world to himself all we have to do is believe the gospel. At this time, no one is under the law. Note: God had said, the Gentiles were with out God in this world and they had no hope, because they were not part of the commonwealth of Israel. But that was before He saved the apostle Paul and sent him to the Gentiles.

Ephesians 2:11-13

v11. Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

v12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

v13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

Ephesians 2:12 was our position in Christ before Christ saved the apostle Paul and commissioned him as the apostle of the Gentiles. God charged Paul with a new dispensation called the dispensation of the grace of God, and a brand new gospel which is the gospel of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery. It includes the Jews if they believe the gospel that Paul preached. Paul received this gospel of Jesus Christ and a new dispensation, for all of mankind.

Ephesians 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;

In the dispensation of the grace of God all mankind is on a level playing field. Therefore  God gave us the apostle Paul as a pattern for everlasting life.  He gave us a new dispensation called the dispensation of the grace of God. We have only one requirement for salvation: "Believe the gospel!"

1Corinthians 15:1-4

v1. Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

v2. By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

v3. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

v4. And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

As I said before, you will see these 4 verses many times in each of my studies. Romans 16:25 and 2Corinthians 4:3-4 can also be found many times as well, I mostly use the KJV translation of the Bible because I have found it to be better than most others.

We must believe in the Lord Jesus Christ's finished work on the cross. Believe in His death, burial, resurrection and ascension back to the Fathers right hand. Believe what God says according to the Scriptures. Paul's gospel is the gospel of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery and this gospel is for all mankind. The Lord Jesus Christ sits at the right hand of the Father making intercession for us. Paul tells us how to understand which Scriptures are to us, he says rightly divide the word of truth, meaning separate truth from truth not truth from error.

In the dispensation of Israel, the Mosaic law was all in all. During the time that the Lord Jesus Christ walked on this earth the Jews were required only to believe that He was the Christ the Son of the living God. After His death another requirement was added: repent of killing their messiah and be baptized for the remission of sin and keep the law. The Lord Jesus Christ said, I did not come to destroy the law, I come to fulfil the law.

Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

The Lord Jesus Christ sent the apostle Paul to put the Mosaic law on hold not to destroy it. God's saving grace is a free gift for all mankind, all that is needed is to believe the gospel 1Corinthians 15:1-4. The law could never give life, it's purpose was to condemn and to kill. But God's grace is a free gift, for everlasting life, it saves and it justifies. No doubt the eleven apostles and all of the kingdom believers were zealous for the law as noted in: Acts 21:20-21 and they all most likely held that position until their death. Clearly Paul's converts were never under the law only the Jews.

 Acts 21:20-21.

v20. And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to Paul, "You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews  there are who have believed, and they are all zealous of the law:

v21. but they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses,  saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs.

When Luke wrote Acts 21:21, the apostle Peter was no longer the leader of the little flock. Their new leader now was, James the Lord's half brother, James became spokesman for the whole assembly. He took the leadership roll from Peter; probably shortly after the apostle James was beheaded. If you are one who looks for signs, this is a big sign for you because it clearly indicates there is a change in direction. Did you notice that James the Lords half brother had the final say in Acts 15, at the Jerusalem council? That clearly demonstrates that James the Lord's half brother is now fully in charge.

Acts 15:13 And after they had held their peace, James (the Lord's half brother) answered, saying, men and brethern, harken unto me:

Acts 15:14 Peter hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.

Final judgment was pronounced on the unbelieving nation Israel by God through the apostle Paul. The nation was set aside in unbelief, but they will be restored. Don't forget, God will still bless any nation that blesses Israel and He will still curse any nation that curses the Israel. God forbid that our nation should ever curse or turn against Israel. The promise of blessings and the promise of curses was given to Abraham long before the nation of Israel was a nation; therefore I am certain these promises will always be in full effect.

Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curses thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Acts 28:28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
     
After Acts 28:28 the new Jewish converts to Paul's gospel had to switch to the Gospel of the Grace of God to be saved. Peter said they would be saved just like the Gentiles. Israel was warned three times before she was set aside; the first warning came in Acts 13:46 the second in Acts 18:6  and the final warning came in Acts 28:28. The nation was set aside in unbelief. They no longer hold favored nation status in the eyes of God.

Jews and Gentiles stand together before God.

1Corinthians 15:1-4

v1. Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

v2. By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

v3. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

v4. And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Before Acts 28:28 kingdom believers had only to believe that Jesus was the Christ the Son of the living God, Jews only! They had to believe Peter's confession: Matt. 16:16. Repent and be baptized and they had to keep the law.

Matthew 16:16-17

v16.And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

v17. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Salvation requirements for the nation Israel, only believe in His name, but that was set aside along with the nation in Acts 28:28. All of Paul's Jewish converts were saved in the same manner as the Gentiles, one at a time. And that is according to Paul's gospel: 1 Cor. 15:1-4.

Both Jew and Gentile are saved in the manner way now.

The Jews were zealous for the law probably as late as 70 A.D. when the temple was destroyed. The temple was destroyed a couple years after the death of Peter and Paul. Colossians 1:25 Paul says, whereof I am made a minister according to the dispensation of God which was given to me for you to fulfil the word of God; Even the mystery which has been hid from ages and generations, but now has been made manifest to his saints; to complete the word of God. The gospel of the kingdom is on hold till the tribulation, the nation Israel has been set aside awaiting the tribulation. Peter indicated there was a change at the Jerusalem council, Peter rose up and said: Acts 15:11. The Gentiles are saved without the law and the Jews will be saved in the same manner, in the dispensation of the grace of God. Peter is speaking here in Acts 15:11.

Acts 15:11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

This verse says the Jews will be saved in the same manner as the Gentiles, and that is by faith alone in Christ's finished work on the cross alone. The fact that James the Lord's half brother took over leadership from Peter; indicates that Peter knew the kingdom gospel was drawing to a close. If Peter knew it two thousand years ago why don't these so called men of God know it now. This change took place about the same time as or shortly after the apostle James was beheaded in Acts 12:2. But most likely it started in Acts 7 with the stoning of Steven. 

The nation sinned against the Father by killing the prophets, they sinned against the Son, by hanging Him on a Roman cross. And finally they sinned against the Holy Spirit by stoning Steven. The dispensation of law is now set aside.

Israel rejected her Messiah then in Acts 28:28 God set the nation aside in unbelief after, He warned them three times, thereby closing the dispensation of Israel under the law. God will no longer deal with Israel as a nation. He only deals with them, individually just like He deals with Gentiles. The kingdom Apostles fade completely from sight. According to secular history they were all martyred, with the exception of the apostle John who died of old age.

John was exiled to the Isle of Patmos where he wrote his final book (Revelation) which was most likely in the late fifties or early sixties, but certainly it was before the apostle Paul's death. Paul was responsible for completing or putting an end to the writing of the word of God according to Colossians 1:25. The Revelation of Jesus Christ is for the future of Israel. If Paul completed the word of God like he said, in Colossians 1:25 that would make 2-Timothy the last book of the Bible that was written.

Colossians 1:25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;

Here Paul says that he was sent to fulfil or complete the Word of God; personnaly I believe Paul was charged with ended the writing of God's Word. But Colossians 1:25 may only mean that he completed the gospel of the grace of God. Look at the GNT#4137 and make up your own mind.

You will not find the church the Body of Christ in the book of Revelation because we are not there. And the church the body of Christ will not be included in Israel's final judgment the tribulation because, we will not be there either. We will be caught-up to be with the Lord Jesus Christ in the air.

The church the body of Christ is not God's earthly people, the Jews are God's earthly people. The body of Christ is God's heavenly people, we are citizens of heaven. Therefore God did not choose the body of Christ for wrath, we will be caught up or raptured before the tribulation can begin. The rapture is our blessed hope in the Lord Jesus Christ!

1Thessalonians 4:16-17

v16. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

v17. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

There are so many folks who do not understand the gospel of the grace of God, they even say that we are putting Paul in Jesus' place. My friend, nothing could be further from the truth! Every word that the apostle Paul wrote, came directly from the risen and Glorified Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, all of Paul's words were inspired by the Lord Jesus Christ.

It will help you understand Scriptures, if you mark not only what is said or written, but of whom or to whom, with what words, at what time, where, to what intent, with what circumstances, considering what goes before and what follows after. Miles Coverdale, was the first man to translate the entire Bible into the English language. While the Bible is the inspired Word of God and is an accurate record of events and sayings of men, we must remember: All Scripture is for me. It is not all addressed to me nor is it written about me.

"Do you want to understand The Bible?"

The only way we can truly understand the Scriptures is to be a member of the body of Christ, then determine who is speaking and to whom they are speaking. (For example,) James the half brother of Christ wrote to the 12 tribes scattered abroad and my friend they were all Jews. Therefore Gentiles are not included in the 12 tribes of Israel. James did not write to the Church the Body of Christ.

If new believers could only understand! Christ was not sent to the Gentiles, He was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel to fulfil the promises made to the fathers. But on the other hand the Lord Jesus Christ from heaven sent the apostle Paul to the Gentiles, and we are admonished by the Holy Spirit to follow Paul as he followed the Lord Jesus Christ risen and glorified. If new believers could only understand that, then most likely they would understand Paul's gospel more completely.

Keep in mind, 2Corinthians 4:3-4 if Paul's gospel is hid, it is hid to them that are lost, because their minds have been blinded by the god of this world. We must follow Paul as he followed the Lord Jesus Christ.

1Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

2Corinthians 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

2Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Romans 16:25 Now to him that is of power to establish 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,

Listen to Miles Coverdale's warning and the Scriptures will become so much easier to be understood, especially the things that differ.

(Right Division) is the key, to understanding the Gospel of the kingdom,from the Gospel of the Grace of God, because the one is prophecy and the other is mystery. We must also separate the nation of Israel, from the church the body of Christ. We should be very sure that we separate these two gospels because only one gospel is for the body of Christ. The gospel of the circumcision is all Jewish it was Prophetic and it is Set Aside. The gospel of the uncircumcision is for the Gentiles it is Mystery and it is (The only Gospel For Today) it is for the church the body of Christ! And it is not part of the Kingdom gospel.

When James the Lord's half brother, Peter and John perceived that there was two gospels, they agreed with Paul and Barnabas to stay with the Nation Israel and preach the gospel of the kingdom to the Jews only; while Paul and his helpers continued in the gospel of the grace of God to the Gentiles.

This was a clear and binding, agreement sealed by a hand shake, between Paul, Barnabas, James the Lords half brother, Peter and John. The other apostles are not mentioned here, but their leaders agreed. The Scriptures do not nullify nor cancel nor disapprove of this agreement in any way. The 11 apostles confined their ministry to Jews only and that never changed. They preached only the gospel of the kingdom and for the most part they left Paul's converts alone. This agreement is found in:

Galatians 2:6-9

v6. But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no mans person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:

v7. But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;

v8. (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

v9. And when James, Peter, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision. 

Acts 28:28. Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.

Have you ever wondered what really happened to the twelve. Peter James and John we know for sure, but the the others we're not so sure, the Scriptures do not say. Therefore we can only go by secular history. But, really if all the stories concerning the travels of the other nine remaining apostles are as bad as the one that makes Peter the first Pope. I prefer to wait and see. In the Kingdom we know that the twelve will sit on twelve thrones with Christ judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Luke 22:30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Matthew 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

I believe that a after Galatians 3:28 salvation would come in the same manner to all who would here after believe. Jews, Gentiles, Bond, Free, Male, and Female, there is no difference, all who believe are baptized into the Body of Christ by the Holy Spirit and sealed. No more law no more customs only one baptism and only one apostle.

Galatians 3:28  There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

1Corinthians 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

Under the law Peter said," to the Jews only repent and be baptized for the remission of sins Acts 2:38. But on the other hand Paul said, under pure grace believe on the Lord Jesus Christ's finished work on the cross and you will be saved; no more law, Galatians 5:18. Why the different commands? The commands are different because they come from two different dispensations"! God deals with mankind in dispensations.

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Galatians 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Romans 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
