Jesus, Peter, Paul, and all the apostles taught that Temple sacrifices, that were meant to atone for sins, were no longer necessary. They all taught everyone must repent of sin, be baptized in water, and follow the teaching of Christ. They all taught the same thing.

Acts 2:37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized [in water] every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized [in water]: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. 42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

Acts 5:42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

Acts 20:20 And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house, 21 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

Acts 22:16 [Ananias tells Paul] And now why tarry thou? arise, and be baptized [in water], and wash away thy sins,

1 Corinthians 1:14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; 15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name. 16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

Note that they (the twelve) were not preaching the cross as GOOD NEWS.

Peter preached the cross as A MURDER WEAPON and his fellow Jews as the perpetrators.

Acts 2:22-24 (AKJV/PCE)

(2:22) Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: (2:23) Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: (2:24) Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.

No "preaching the cross" per Paul there.

@DFT_Dave Please show us all where Jesus and Peter preached the following:

Eph 2:8-9 (AKJV/PCE)

(2:8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: (2:9) Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Paul makes it clear in 1 Cor that some saved people are sinning.

I don't want this thread to be about the old nature vs new, etc. This thread is about Mid Acts, although I did not intend it originally.

The Mid Acts belief is that Jesus, Peter, and the disciples preached faith plus works and they preached only to the Jews; and that only Paul preached faith alone without works and he preached only to the Gentiles.

The other view is that they all preached the same thing to both Jews and Gentiles.

In Acts 20:20 Paul is speaking about himself that he preached repentance. In Acts 22 it says he was baptized and in 1 Corinthians that he baptized others but not many, meaning he believed in both repentance and baptism in water.

The same gospel was preached to both Jews and Greeks / Gentiles.

Sorry, Mid Acts is not winning this debate.

You're... AGAIN... beating up a straw-man.

The twelve (which includes Peter) agreed to limit their ministry (i.e., preaching) to the CIRCUMCISION only.

Gal 2:9 (AKJV/PCE)

(2:9) And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we [should go] unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.

Paul did NOT preach to "only Gentiles". Paul preached to the HEATHEN (i.e., the UNSAVED, be they Jew or Gentile).

Acts 11:19 (AKJV/PCE)

(11:19) ¶ Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.

DFT_Dave said:

You mean the false view.

Perhaps it has escaped your notice that the twelve were preaching the gospel of the kingdom for YEARS and YET did not even know that Christ would die. Luke 18:31-34

That proves beyond any doubt that the gospel of the kingdom and gospel of the grace of God are NOT identical.

Checkmate -- game over -- thanks for playing.

To commit a sin is not the same as to live in sin which means to keep on sinning. We can all sin but that does not mean we sin all day long.

Romans 6 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Newness of life does not mean we will never sin again, newness of life means we do not have to live in sin--sin every day.

It's simply stunning to me how people can read a passage that says one thing (Romans 6) and think it means it's opposite!

You made a point about how we still sin in a discussion about whether we should follow the Ten Commandments. The fact that Adam sinned centuries before anyone ever heard of the Ten Commandments, is proof that the two points are not mutually exclusive. That is to say that holding the position that we ought not pay any attention at all to the Ten Commandments, is not the same thing as saying that it's okay for us to be immoral. You do not need the Ten Commandments to be either righteous or wicked.

DFT_Dave said:

Paul explicitly contradict you...

Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. 16 If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. 17 But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. 18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. 19 For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. 20 Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

21 I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. 22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? 25 I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!

So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

Saying, "It's flatly obvious to the point of my not really needing even ask it. Just tell me the answer you already know is correct" is a rhetorical question. Don't worry, it's a minor mistake.

Jesus told ALL of the disciples to sell all that they had. Are you unaware of this?

Luke 12:33 (AKJV/PCE)

(12:33) Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.

This is why Peter could said this:

Matt 19:27 (AKJV/PCE)

Do you know WHY they were told to do that?

DFT_Dave said:

Poor ignorant Dave. Paul had a unique gospel, the gospel of the grace of God. It is found ONLY in Paul's epistles. Without Paul, it cannot be found in scripture.

DFT_Dave said:

DFT_Dave said:

Support the claim. And even if they did, so what? Were they not told to go to all the world?

When the believing Jews were persecuted, what did the twelve do? They stayed in Jerusalem per Jesus' instructions. There was an order that they were to follow.

Luke 24:47 (AKJV/PCE)

(24:47) And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

Problem was... Jerusalem did not accept the message.

Acts 1:8 (AKJV/PCE)

(1:8) But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Never happened... Israel rejected the message and God revealed His previously hidden dispensation to and through Paul.

Rom 16:25 (AKJV/PCE)

(16:25) Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

Peter did not know about the revelation of the mystery. Peter preached what the prophets wrote.

Acts 3:21 (AKJV/PCE)

(3:21) Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.
