Even if, Peter never preached the same thing as Paul in regard to the death and resurrection having been for the forgiveness of sin.
Yes he did.
"He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. 25 For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls." (1Pe 2:24-25 ESV)

It is only logical that those who said they wanted to hear more and followed him heard more.:dunce::duh:
You think that those in Acts 2 never heard from Peter again?
There are many sermons by the apostles that we have no record of. That doesn't mean you get to make up what they said based on your own imagination.
Stick with the word!

Speaking of adding to His word where does the Bible that tells us Jesus was a Man,
1 tim 2:5, read it!
"For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men the man Christ Jesus," (1Ti 2:5 ESV)"

and a human being at that,
The same verse.
... and there is one Mediator between God and men (
ανθρωπος) the man (
ανθρωπος) Christ Jesus"
The same Greek word that Paul uses to speak of the humanity of those for whom Christ mediates is used to speak of Christ the mediator.

tell us He had a human nature as well as a divine nature, e.g. two natures at once?
That's the only logical conclusion of the biblical facts.
Show me the single verse that says explicitly that God is Triune. You can't. Nevertheless, the Trinity is the only logical conclusion from the biblical facts.
1. Jesus is God.
2. The Father is God.
3. The Holy Spirit is God.
4. They are distinct and co-existent.
Therefore, God is Triune.
I hope you at least accept this, right?
The same is true of the dual nature of Christ Jesus.
1. Jesus is God
2. Jesus is a Man.
3. Men are human.
4. Humans have a human nature :duh:
5. All members of the Trinity share the Divine nature.
Therefore Jesus has both a Divine and human nature.

You are an accuser of the brethren and your attempts to condemn me have no effect.
There are some things that if you are obstinate about your error, you aren't a brother and tinkering with the essence of the Person of Christ is one of those things.
Jehovah's witnesses the LDS, the christadelphians, etc.. all deny essential truth about the nature of God and/or the nature of Christ.
I don't consider them brother's either.

Even if I am wrong on something does not mean I am not saved; it simply means God has not yet led me to the truth, but I am certainly more than willing to be led and admit my error if I ever find I was wrong. Can you say the same for yourself?
Jehovah's witnesses are wrong on somethings and the things that they are wrong about are so serious that they aren't saved. Maybe they have not yet been led to the truth, nevertheless. A yet to be converted Jehovah's witness is still lost.
You also hold to a heresy about the nature of Christ. That's a big deal! I hope that God does lead you to the truth of the full humanity of Christ just like there are some Jehovah's witnesses that I hope God will lead to the truth of the full divinity of Christ. Until they are so led, they aren't believers. And until you are so led, you aren't one either.
