IntercessorGinger: Excellent!

Apokalupto: The scriptures glorify Christ, prophesy of Jesus, foreshadow His coming and the gospel. "The Gospel according to Psalms" really means the foreshadowing of Jesus and his glorious gospel, fulfilling scripture perfectly and without sin.

IntercessorGinger: Yes..Amen

Joktan: The apostle Paul who persecuted the Church at one time in ignorance and unbelief was met by Christ and given the gospel of Christ to give to us.

Gal 1:11  But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 

Gal 1:12  For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. 


Gal 1:15  But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, 
Gal 1:16  To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: 

Paul as he says got this gospel not from men but from Christ.

This is the gospel he had received:

1Co 15:1  Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 
1Co 15:2  By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 
1Co 15:3  For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 
1Co 15:4  And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 

For you to be saved, you must believe that Christ died for our sin, was buried and rose again according to the
scriptures.
