No, there is only one Gospel. But Peter displayed his lack of full understanding as he tried to fashion his Jewish roots to this New Testament of Grace, Salvation through faithe (yes, the verb form) in Christ crucified and risen for us. Peter came to comprehend the Gospel gradually, but he and James and the rest of the Jews in Jerusalem who believed on Jesus were gently drawn into the full knowledge, a knowledge which Jesus personally explained to Paul following the Damascus conversion.

There are not two Gospels, there are two different paths that reach the same Gospel, that which Peter had to be led along and that which Jesus 'estonied' Saul with. There is only the One Gospel. The Catholic Church History might be an excellent example of how God is gentle and long suffering to bring us to a full knowledge ... the many mistakes done by the Catholic hierarchy, done in the name of 'The Church' and working for Jesus, and yet it is that same ekklesia which God has used to bring the Scriptures as they are to us today. And make no mistake here, God is able to have the Bible He wants for us today. And He is long suffering to allow errors to be made in translation that get revealed later in the church age so as to silence heresies ... like the mistranslation of apostasia, used as a wedge between Protestant revolutionaries and the Catholic Church to mean everything from breaking away from mother Church to falling away from the Gospel; but apostasia as used in the day that word made it into the Scriptures meant 'departing'.

You have a doctrinal problem. You already agreed with smvoice's doctrine and teaching after she post 242 to you and others.

" The Book of Galatians helps tremendously in this area. Particularly Chap. 2:5-10. Paul tells of his journey to Jerusalem again where he met with at least James, Cephas (Peter) and John. In verse 2 Paul states clearly that he went there by revelation (from Jesus Christ, obviously), in order to communicate to them THAT GOSPEL WHICH HE PREACHED AMONG THE GENTILES. Obviously, if it was the same gospel that Peter and the 11 had been commissioned to preach, Paul would not have described his at THAT GOSPEL. If he differentiating, there HAS to be more than one gospel."

More errors of bias

Translation of apostasia in bold below (could also add other Septuagint translations from Hebrew where apostasia is used for revolt; it is not used for a rapture):

In the mean while the king's officers, such as compelled the people to revolt, came into the city Modin, to make them sacrifice.

And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
First Maccabees, Catholic chapter two, Protestant verse fifteen,
Acts, Catholic chapter twenty one, Protestant verse twenty one,
Second Thessalonians, Catholic chapter two, Protestant verse three,
as authorized, but not authored, by King James
