Did you know the “Gospel of Paul” preceded the other four? Do you know what it really says?

Did Paul preach the same gospel as Jesus?

  • Jesus' gospel focused on God's imminent kingdom on earth.
  • Paul never even mentioned an earthly kingdom.
  • In fact, Paul quoted the words of Jesus in only one of his letters.

Did Jesus call everyone to repentance? Did Paul call anyone?

  • Jesus called on people who needed to repent.
  • He also explicitly acknowledged ordinary righteous people who didn't need to repent.
  • Paul barely mentioned repentance in any of his letters.

Does God forgive sins?

  • Jesus' preached that God's forgiveness is contingent only upon repentance.
  • Paul's gospel was entirely focused on blood atonement instead of repentance and forgiveness.
  • For Paul, if God could simply forgive sins, then Jesus' death was meaningless.

Bottom line: Paul’s gospel virtually ignores what Jesus actually taught.
