Oh boy. If you think that Paul is preaching a different message of a different Christ then this is yet another departure from Christianity, one that has been put down as heresy many many times.

Nope...Different Gospel...Same Jesus...

It's really simple...Why you don't get it is a mystery to me...

Jesus came to earth to save His own...The Jews...He came bringing a Kingdom, with Himself as the Messiah...

The Jew rejected their Messiah...

To then make the Jews jealous, and to punish them, Jesus offered salvation to Gentiles...Freely...He gave it to us freely...That required a change in the Jewish plan...

Jesus chose Paul to preach THAT Gospel to the Gentiles and anyone including Jews who would listen...

At the time of God's chosing, the Gentile 'church', the Body of Christ, will be taken out and the Jews again will be the recipient of God's offer...

This time, they will accept the offer...

Of course you will reject this because your religion told you that you guys are now the Jews...Pity on you...

Thank you, Iscool. I can't seem to be able to get through...

..And what would be the ultimate reason God would choose to do this?

"That in the AGES TO COME he might shew the EXCEEDING RICHES OF HIS GRACE in HIS KINDNESS toward US THROUGH CHRIST JESUS." (Eph. 2:7).

There is a group of people who believe that 'by Grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is a gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast" Who believe that Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day, Who believe that the Finished Work of Jesus Christ has saved us, and have accepted His finished work for our salvation, who make up a body called the Church the body of Christ. This Body of believers had a definite beginning, a definite Gospel of the Grace of God, a definite commission, and a definite catching away when the Body of Christ is complete, The fullness of the Gentiles is brought in.

Please, what does "taken out" mean in this context?
