While Petrer preached the Kingdom, the Holy Spirit descended upon those in whom the belief of Jesus as Savior and Lord arose. So, while Peter preached one thing, which had inherent in it the Gospel of Grace through Christ Jesus, he did not immediately realize why the Holy Spirit indwelt these listening to him expound on the coming Kingdom. This notion was left in the dust on the road to Damascus by Paul, when Jesus appeared to him personally and subsequently instructed him directly. Paul had been persecuting The Church because he could not reconcile the man Jesus, even with the miracles of note, with the Kingdom Age since the Throne of David had not been set up again following the resurrection. This same confusion plagued the disciples, until they gradually came to realize the pause in Daniel's weeks and the reality that it is ONLYT by Grace that anyone is Saved, and this available to Jew and Gentile alike.

What a great explanation to a question I've often wondered about.
