God is sovereign in my theology.

Why did Paul distinguish between two different Gospels?
8 (for he who worked through Peter for his apostolic ministry to the circumcised worked also through me for mine to the Gentiles)
15 We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; 16 yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.
19 For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.

I can read what you're posting but you're avoiding the question.
WHY were there two different Gospels mentioned at the same time?

Truth is never intwined with anything if it can be understood that truth exposes the lie.
Paul was a Calvinist.

You are begging a wrong question . . .
Are you trying to get this newbie to say there are more than one true Gospel, even though he is giving you Holy Scripture that obviously does not support what you believe?

Because he wanted to show how both ends as one in Jesus Christ

He was so strong on Jesus Christ He claimed His gospel as his own in a show of union and purpose. It is an elementary thing people do in their life to show solidarity with someone they strongly admire; in whom they have staked their lives.
Without saying they do, many presently do this on this forum.

Sour grapes . . .
If it was a couple of seconds, then it wasn't outside of time.
Put the bottle down for a moment.
They were not two different gospels.
They were the same gospel delivered differently, but obeyed the same as Paul himself did obey it.
Act 22:13 Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.
Act 22:14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
Act 22:15 For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
Act 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
Rom 6:17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
Rom 6:18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.

Sooooo, when your flesh body sins now (after you were regenerated), who chose to do those sins?
