Like I said, Peter's ministry during Jesus' walk on earth (the Gospels) was to the Jews only...
Mat 10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
I don't know what to tell you...God says Peter's ministry was to the Jews only...Apparently your church tradition disagrees with that...You'll have to take that up with God...
No. There was ONE gospel. ONLY ONE GOSPEL. It was the same gospel offered to every man, woman and child on this earth by the Apostles. Or have you forgotten “one Lord, one faith, one baptism” ( Ephesians 4:5 ).
But more than one Gospel...Gospel doesn't mean Lord, Faith or Baptism...
Paul's gosple was the Gospel of Grace...
I. In itself, the word Gospel means good news.
II. Four forms of the Gospel are to be distinguished:
(1) The Gospel of the kingdom. This is the good news that God purposes to set up on the earth, in fulfilment of the Davidic Covenant: (2Sa_7:16): a kingdom, political, spiritual, Israelitish, universal, over which God's Son, David's heir, shall be King, and which shall be, for one thousand years, the manifestation of the righteousness of God in human affairs.
(See) - (Mat_3:2).
Two preachings of this Gospel are mentioned, one past, beginning with the ministry of John the Baptist, continued by our Lord and His disciples, and ending with the Jewish rejection of the King. The other is yet future (Mat_24:14) during the great tribulation, and immediately preceding the coming of the King in glory.
(2) The Gospel of the grace of God. This is the good news that Jesus Christ, the rejected King, has died on the cross for the sins of the world, that He was raised from the dead for our justification, and that, by Him, all that believe are justified from all things. This form of the Gospel is described in many ways. It is the Gospel...
"of God" (Rom_1:1) because it originates in His love;
"of Christ" (2Co_10:14) because it flows from His sacrifice, and because He is the alone Object of Gospel faith;
of the "grace of God" (Act_20:24) because it saves those whom the law curses;
of "the glory"; (1Ti_1:11); (2Co_4:4) because it concerns Him who is in the glory, and who is bringing the many sons to glory; (Heb_2:10);
of "our salvation" (Eph_1:13) because it is the "power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth"; (Rom_1:16);
of "the uncircumcision" (Gal_2:7) because it saves wholly apart from forms and ordinances of "peace"
(Eph_6:15) because through Christ it makes peace between the sinner and God, and imparts inward peace.
(3) The everlasting Gospel. (Rev_14:6). This is to be preached to the earth-dwellers at the very end of the great tribulation and immediately preceding the judgment of the nations (Mat_15:31). It is neither the Gospel of the kingdom, nor of grace. Though its burden is judgment, not salvation, it is good news to Israel and to those who, during the tribulation, have been saved; (Rev_7:9-14); (Luk_21:28); (Psa_96:11-13); (Isa_35:4-10).
(4) That which Paul calls, "my Gospel" (Rom_2:16). This is the Gospel of the grace of God in its fullest development, but includes the revelation of the result of that Gospel in the outcalling of the church, her relationships, position, privileges, and responsibility. It is the distinctive truth of Ephesians and Colossians, but interpenetrates all of Paul's writings.
III. There is "another Gospel" (Gal_1:6); (2Co_11:4) "which is not another," but a perversion of the Gospel of the grace of God, against which we are warned. It has many seductive forms, but the test is one -- it invariably denies the sufficiency of grace alone to save, keep, and perfect, and mingles with grace some kind of human merit. In Galatia it was law, in Colosse fanaticism (Col_2:18); etc. In any form, its teachers lie under the awful anathema of God.
You wrote:
“Like I said, Peter’s ministry during Jesus’ walk on earth (the Gospels) was to the Jews only...”
And your comment has no bearing on the reality of the Catholic Church - in the first century or now.
“I don’t know what to tell you...God says Peter’s ministry was to the Jews only...Apparently your church tradition disagrees with that...You’ll have to take that up with God...”
No, you’re simply wrong. You’re even contradicting yourself, but apparently can’t see something that obvious. 1) Jesus’ ministry was to Jews while He walked the Earth, but He dealt with Gentiles and Samaritans as well at times. 2) matthew 10 is BEFORE the Great Commission. 3) The Great Commission was from CHRIST HIMSELF to ALL the Apostles. 4) All the Apostles would therefore have a ministry to all people even if their primary ministry was to Jews or Gentiles. 5) In any case, Peter ministered to Gentiles and taught that it was good to do so.
“But more than one Gospel...Gospel doesn’t mean Lord, Faith or Baptism...”
There was only one Gospel. Others were false gospels - like what Protestants preach.
“Paul’s gosple was the Gospel of Grace...”
Christ’s gospel was the gospel of grace. Paul merely followed Christ.
There are not four forms of the Gospel. That would mean four gospels. There is ONE gospel, only one.
“II. Four forms of the Gospel are to be distinguished:”
Great - you can rip off the Scofield Bible. Why not cite it if you believe it?
As often happened with Schofield, he was wrong. There is ONLY one Gospel. There are many false gospels - like Protestantism - but only one Gospel.
