There is the Message about the earthly kingdom where Christ will
reign on the throne of David. And, there's the Grace Message given
to Paul by the "Ascended Christ." Paul preached that message to
the gentiles. Peter and the other Apostles preached the earthly
Kingdom Message to the House of Israel. Therein lies the difference.

When Jesus returns it will be at the Great White Throne Judgment. Everyone will be raised from the dead. The saved will meet Jesus in the air. The wrath will come on the earth.

There will be a new earth, and Jesus will HAND OVER THE KINGDOM TO THE FATHER.

Where do you get that Jesus will rule on this earth with people who reject him?!

Did you ever reject Him?

First of all, let us discover who James is speaking to? James 1:1 states: James 1:1 states: "James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

Once we've established that: James 2:17 states: "Thus also faith
by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." Which PROVES that the
Israelite's of which James was speaking to, were bound to "works plus
faith.

Whereas, Paul says to the gentile believers in Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

Thus, two different Messages.

why would there be two different messages?

NOT OF WORKS ARE THE CEREMONIAL WORKS!
