The five most important points on the difference between the gospel of the kingdom with the #gospel of grace;

1. The 12 apostles were only sent to Israel (Matthew 10:5-6; compare with Matthew 15:24 and Romans 15:8).

@ThaRealJgibbs @PeterDerrida @BWSchank @cbmccranie1769 @adrianturner01 @Standing_Word @higham_mark @PaulsWalls2 @JeffPassage @sonofDaVid512 @TylerMarkJ @NahumOBrien 2. It was announced that the kingdom of heaven was near (Matthew 10:7).
3. The apostles were given the power to perform miracles (Matthew 10:8).
4. Believers don't need to prepare for tomorrow's needs (Matthew 10:8-10; Luke 12:32-33).

Secondly, notice to God's mandate in the gospel of the Kingdom which is offered here (post crucifixion):
1. The apostles were sent to all nations starting from Jerusalem.

@ThaRealJgibbs @PeterDerrida @BWSchank @cbmccranie1769 @adrianturner01 @Standing_Word @higham_mark @PaulsWalls2 @JeffPassage @sonofDaVid512 @TylerMarkJ @NahumOBrien This is the development of the kingdom of God mission where through Israel all nations will be blessed (Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:16; Acts 1:8).
2. The kingdom of heaven which was previously preached is now being offered for the acceptance of Israel (Acts 2:36-39; 3:19-26).

4. Believers own their property as mutual belongings (Acts 2:44-45; 4:32-37).

Repentance and water baptism are needed for forgiveness of sins and to obtain the gift of the Holy Spirit (Mark 16:16-18; Acts 2:38).

In general, these things indicate that God's message in the period of the Kingdom's offer >

What's in the dispensation of Grace:
1. Preaching the gospel to everyone without any exception/being prioritized (2 Corinthians 5:14-21).

The coming of Christ to judge and rule the world still hasn't been implemented, while God offers atonement for all His enemies (2 Corinthians 5:16, 19; Romans 11:25).
3. The gift of miracles has stopped. During the transition period its performance still appeared, >

4. There is no order to "sell possessions and goods, and part them to all men, as every man had need" as written >

Even the apostle Paul had to collect offerings to give to believers in Jerusalem who were in need because they had already sold their possessions (Acts 4:34; 11:27-30; Romans 15:26; 1 Corinthians 16:1-3).

People are only saved by faith in the grace of God in Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 5:18-21; Romans 3:21,24-28; 4:5; Ephesians 2:8-9).

In principle, of course, God's mandate can be learned and beneficial for our spiritual life, but to apply those truths without dividing rightly, it will be so confusing.

@ThaRealJgibbs @PeterDerrida @BWSchank @cbmccranie1769 @adrianturner01 @Standing_Word @higham_mark @PaulsWalls2 @JeffPassage @sonofDaVid512 @TylerMarkJ @NahumOBrien Now salvation is offered directly to everyone without going through Israel as the mediator as in the gospel of the kingdom of God. Everyone can receive it by having faith in God's grace in Jesus Christ. Have you had it already?

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, #now is the day of #salvation.) 🙏🏽🙏🏽
