3. We have the Gospel as preached by the apostles (most info we have is from Paul)
I agree. Please read my posts in light of that. The missing link for some is they fail to see the Gospels in light of the Cross and Empty Tomb. Please read the post again. I am not putting #3 above #1. #3 is the result of #1 and most importantly #2 which is the fulfillment of #1, The Law and Prophets.
