INTRODUCTION

In this present Dispensation of Grace, God has committed one gospel to the Body of Christ—the Gospel of the Grace of God (Acts 20:24), revealed exclusively to the Apostle Paul by the risen Christ.

This gospel is not optional, adjustable, or interchangeable. Paul does not show tolerance toward any message that alters, adds to, or subtracts from the revelation given to him.
Galatians 1:8 declares:
“Though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel… let him be accursed.”

This warning is not about religion, politics, or personal preference—it concerns the very message that saves in this dispensation. To preach another gospel is to oppose God Himself.

2 Timothy 2:7 KJV
7 - Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

2 Timothy 2:15-16 KJV
15 - Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16 - But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

Colossians 2:2-3 KJV
2 - That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
3 - In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
