I think it can be read either way.

Yep, prophecy. No mystery there.

Nope. Peter's gospel of the Kingdom is not even close to Paul's Gospel. Semantics can never cover up the truth of what is written in God's word.

Neither verse is talking about a future salvation. Paul is talking about being saved from the future WRATH of God. Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved...

That's part of the mystery. We are new creatures, bought with a price, sealed by the Spirit. We can still exercise our free will and have a loss of rewards when we stand before the judgement seat of Christ, but we cannot ever lose our salvation. There is a big difference. They are told to...

So you must think we're living in the new covenant right now. Well, you're not alone, but you're dead wrong. This is another example of why the Bible is divided up in dispensations. This is the new covenant, and it takes place when the Lord returns. This is when their sins may blotted out...

It still a mystery to so many. The churches have done such a disservice to mankind. Preaching a gospel that doesn't even apply to us. Paul is basically ignored because his gospel can't be mixed in with the rest of the book. A real shame.

Nope. It's only our body we wait for. We are saved by grace when we believe....IN Christ....seated with Him in heavenly places. We believe unto righteousness, and our salvation signed sealed and done....awaiting only our spiritual body, as I mentioned. Most important, our sins have been...

That's because Peter was being a hypocrite...expecting others to keep the law that even he failed to keep. Paul was merely pointing out the difference between the gospels.

Shall be saved. Future tense for the Jews. Present tense for the body.

God has a purpose for both groups. Not all are "incorporated" into the body of Christ.

Peter is proof that it's to the Jews in the scattered nations. He is doing what Jesus commanded. 1 Peter 2:12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day...

They weren't saved by grace through faith as members of the body of Christ are, but it's no mystery how they were saved. They had to keep the commandments, and endure to the end. Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the...

Please give me the scripture before I respond. I don't believe the Apostles went anywhere preaching their Gospel outside of what they had already been told about not going to the gentiles. Did He tell them He would raise His own body (temple) in three days? Yes, but they didn't know what He...

What incorporation are you talking about?

Nope, the work of the Apostles was basically done. They continued to obey what Jesus told them. Matthew 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: The church has nothing to do with...

Now for the Mystery Paul calls his own gospel a mystery. The church of God being the body of Christ is a mystery. Ephesians 6:19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, The rapture, itself, is a mystery. 1...

No, the gentiles being called was not a mystery. That's prophecy...."light to the gentiles". One of the mysteries revealed by Paul was "Christ in you" speaking of the body of Christ and the indwelling Spirit. Not just a temporary gift of the Spirit that came upon people, which happened...

I'll answer. God needed Paul to communicate the mystery program. That which had been kept hidden since the beginning.

No, they were referring to the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. God coming to the earth to rule. In fact, only Matthew spoke of the Kingdom of Heaven and he is the one who focused on Jesus being the KING of the Kingdom.
