Paul's gospel is also my gospel, which is God's gospel, and Christ's gospel.
If you sincerely follow the Holy Spirit, He will lead you to the Catholic Church

By the way, both Christ and the other man went to Paradise, not purgatory or
Heaven. Paradise was divided into two separate areas: Abraham's Bosom and
Hades. When Christ left Hades, He took all of the "Believers" who were in
Abraham's Bosom to Heaven with Him. Only Hades was left and that's where
the unbelievers then, and now go until the Great White Throne Judgment, where
they will be judged by their works. By the way, Hades is a place of torment.
The "True Believers" go directly to Heaven when they die.

You can't "try" to follow the LAW and Grace. It's one or the other.
If I might add, Christ hadn't ascended to Heaven yet. Therefore, He
hadn't met Saul (Paul) on the road to Damascus yet.
Stop trying to follow the Law that was given to the Jews and cling to
the Grace Message. (Paul's Gospel) Then, you won't stand before God
and be judged by your works! Those who are judged by their works will
be cast into the "Lake of Fire" along with the Devil, etc.
One cannot say, they follow Paul's Gospel (Christ's Gospel) and follow the
Law at the same time. It doesn't work that way.

I think people believe there are more gospels then there are. The good new has been being revealed more and more throughout history. It has always been about faith and the grace of God. Faith that God would deliver us and by grace. Is Christ divided?
1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
1 Corinthians 1:12 Now I say this, that each of you says, "I am of Paul," or "I am of Apollos," or "I am of Cephas," or "I am of Christ."
1 Corinthians 1:13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
Paul was speaking of the "Gospel" that the "Ascended Christ" gave to
Paul. It's the ONLY Gospel for today. It's for Jew and gentile alike.

Yes but israel was not saved by the law either. It is about faith and grace. They rejected God at the mountain.
What's your argument? Aren't we talking about how one is saved today?
There is only one Gospel today. There, we both agree.

Yes. We all are saved by the same method.
There are not only four that we know of, there are at least a dozen others--maybe more.

Sadly, that experience seems to have been entirely lost on you.

...according to the assumptions and opinions of GM's preferred recently-invented, man-made non-Catholic sect, anyway. :yawn:
Did the Pope himself tell you that or, did you read it off a pack of gum?
I'll take the one, you can have the other 11.
Are you a member of a cult? Just asking.
Contrary to what church the Holy Spirit would guide us to, the Holy Spirit
dwells within each member of the "Body of Christ." The Holy Spirit would
not lead a member to a church that doesn't preach Paul's Gospel.(The Grace
Message) The Catholic church is steeped in idol worship, false doctrine, earning
one's way to Heaven, etc.

What cult would I be in if I am not affiliated with a church? You and I went over this.
