Dear jimeny crickets, redleghunter, can you not read simple words? I have stated again and Again and AGAIN that the “gospel of the grace of God is Christ dying FOR OUR SINS, being buried, and then being raised again on the third day for our salvation. It is PETER who did not preach Christ dying FOR OUR SINS FOR SALVATION. Read his Pentecost sermon again. He preached Christ dying, being buried and rising again the third day as kingdom gospel. That when Israel as a nation realized that Christ was INDEED their prophesied Messish, they repented and were baptized so that the days of refreshing might come and God would send Christ back. Read Peter’s sermon AS IT IS WRITTEN, WORD FOR WORD. And don’t try to anticipate revelation that had yet to be revealed. You know it’s there because you’re HERE, looking back. But they did not have that luxury. They were told by Peter that Joel’s prophecy concerning Israel and Messiah’s eminent return to set up His kingdom was happening. And they believed it. So much that they repented, were baptized, gave all they had away and had all things in common, and awaited the eminent return of their Messiah, Jesus Christ. Read CB’s post 505. I cannot keep posting the same things again and again. Unless you decide to actually READ WHAT GOD’S WORD ACTUALLY SAYS>

I saw the post and you have not addressed any of the references beyond Acts 2 I made.

That when Israel as a nation realized that Christ was INDEED their prophesied Messish, they repented and were baptized so that the days of refreshing might come and God would send Christ back. Read Peter’s sermon AS IT IS WRITTEN, WORD FOR WORD. And don’t try to anticipate revelation that had yet to be revealed.

You do realize, many Jews accepted the Gospel message on Pentecost. They were also filled with the Holy Spirit. Based on your above comments, then even with that small remnant of Jews converted, Christ would return. We know that did not happen. We also know from Peter's epistles, as with Paul's epistles, they both expand on the gospel message.

So if you do not want to put a stake in the ground where the kingdom gospel ended and the gospel of grace started, that is fine, but don't expect me to respond to your unfounded and belittling comments.
