Across Scripture, God has revealed different messages for different dispensations. But in this present Dispensation of Grace, there is only ONE gospel that saves—Paul’s gospel, the gospel of Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection for our sins (1 Cor. 15:1–4).

This gospel is not the kingdom gospel preached by Jesus to Israel, nor the gospel of the circumcision given to the twelve apostles (Gal. 2:7).

It is the gospel of the grace of God revealed to the Apostle Paul by Jesus Christ Himself (Gal. 1:11–12).

And this gospel alone saves today.
