Our gospel is found detailed in Romans 1-5, and summarized in 1Corinthians 15:1-4, clarified in Ephesians 2:8-9, and verified in Ephesians 1:13 KJV.To be saved today, a person must first TRUST 100% in God the Son, Jesus Christ; and then without doing, saying, or praying anything BELIEVE that Christ DIED FOR THEIR SINS, and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day.That's the gospel we must believe TODAY to have eternal life in heaven, and no other (Ro 1:16; Ro 2:16; Ro 16:25; Ga 1:8-9 KJV).The truth that Christ "died for our sins" cannot be found in John. What the NATION OF ISRAEL had to believe to be saved in Time Past was that JESUS WAS THE CHRIST, their prophesied Messiah.John is a book that was written TO the nation of Israel only, in Time Past during the dispensation of LAW. John was NOT written TO us for our obedience today; only for our learning so we might understand God's dealings with ISRAEL under the LAW.Today, we are living under the dispensation of GRACE, the HEAVENLY ministry that Christ committed exclusively to our Apostle, Paul. We believers today have a different relationship with God; we operate under a different set of instructions (grace doctrine; Romans thru Philemon KJV).Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, and the first half of Acts, is still in Time Past; those books contain the gospel and doctrine TO the nation of Israel (Jews). During Jesus' EARTHLY ministry, he was sent to confirm the promises God made to their fathers (Ro 15:8; Mat 15:24 KJV).Romans thru Philemon KJV is where we find the gospel that saves TODAY and the doctrine TO the Church the Body of Christ for OUR walk.Today, both Jews and Gentiles (non-Jews) are saved the same way: by believing PAUL's gospel of GRACE without works.In Acts 7, Israel fell, and then God temporarily PAUSED Israel's PROPHECY program, in order to begin the new dispensation of grace.In Acts 9, Christ saves Saul-Paul and makes him the first member of the Body of Christ, and the new pattern of salvation (1Ti 1:16 KJV), committing to Paul the revelation of the MYSTERY.Paul is made the minister of the Church the Body of Christ (Col 1:22-28 KJV) under this present dispensation of GRACE (Eph 3:1-10 KJV).Paul's GRACE gospel and doctrine will be in effect until Christ appears in the clouds to take all of us believers of Paul's gospel to heaven (1Thes 4:16-17 KJV).Then, God will RESTART Israel's PROPHECY program, and the 7-year Tribulation on Earth begins. Then, after that will be Christ's second coming. Christ will then destroy his enemies and establish his Kingdom in Jerusalem, and resurrect the SAVED Jewish saints from the grave.Meanwhile, we, the members of the Church the Body of Christ, will be in heaven enjoying our new life and career in our sinless and incorruptible heavenly bodies.Please, note some of the basic differences between the dispensation of LAW and the dispensation of GRACE, as shown below.TIME PAST ............
