[@wloenterprises]

Once again brother you've made scripture clearer cant wait to see you guys in Tennessee

[@savannahyoung4425]

I really appreciate the way you go through the Bible. The white board is incredibly helpful! I look forward to participating in person from now on.

The "mystery" is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Col. 1:27

[@BrockJamesStory]

That’s part of it

[@Corinna_Schuett_GER]

Absolutely TRUE about the "narratives" of teachers and teachings, often delivered for centuries already and nobody would crosscheck them with scriptures! When I am talking about that as a "woman" I often get the Pauline hammer back that I would teach others and I ought to be silent.

[@rickorider]

Great teaching on the foundation that Paul laid.

[@5olas]

I want to thank you for your preaching. I was raised in the church but was taught nothing but a works based, social gospel. I am now learning true biblical teaching from you and others who rightly divide the word of truth. God is good, and patient. I am 53 years old and I feel like a newborn.

@Grace Ambassadors Justin I love your ‘Ironman’ approach to doctrine (as opposed to ‘straw man), setting up the strongest possible objections to Mid-Acts Pauline Dispensationalism and then defeating them with plain reading of Scripture and logic. It really helps the lessons to stick in my mind for me to recall when I am ministering in my own church community. God bless from New Zealand

[@SarasotaFl]

I love you Justin

[@roga49]

Thanks brother Justin...undoubtedly if the foundations are not laid properly the entire building would be in danger....I see it all the time among grace preachers...but the solution is to study for yourself and study until the puzzle pieces come all together ❤ 😀....so while I appreciate others that teach,I have come to the conclusion that I need to study 📖 and stick to the pure words of the KJB 1611-1769...Thanks again,greetings to you and the local fellowship. 😀

[@Phil-Lemon]

Which grace preachers are you referring?

[@solarpanel9085]

Cool.

So helpful to understand that promises made before are now received today according to the mystery. That clears up a lot of miss understanding. Now I clearly understand how the death burial and resurrection of Christ was according to prophesy in the scripture but I received the benefits according to the mystery now. We have the forgiveness of sins now and not in the future that Israel will receive. That has made verse 2 of Romans 1 so clear! We get the promise of eternal life that was promised by the prophets in scripture but now through the mystery. We get what was promised but not through Israel but through the mystery by faith. We have the atonement now Paul says. For gentiles to receive eternal life without Israel was unheard of before the mystery. If Israel has fallen how can gentiles or anyone receive the promise today. Only by the mystery revealed. Wow this is so clear Thankyou Justin for showing us this from the scriptures

God bless you pastor for this series of message, I admit I was praying God for a Roman’s thorough message… I’ll watch every episode. Greetings from Brasil 🇧🇷

[@julielittle3820]

First, Justin, thank you for the time you take to present the word to us and teaching it to us. I’m sure it takes a lot of time to prepare for these studies. I kept looking at Matthew 9:15 because you said he was a chosen apostle there. I finally figured out it was actually Acts 9:15. I thought I was losing my mind lol.

[@danpreston1044]

WOW

1x(2/23/23)…..starts 0:00….22:00…..30:00….45:00……1:01:00…..ok….1:10:00….done thank you excellent. He talks fast which is hard to follow sometimes. Do 2x later

[@vernonsteinkamp1088]

I asked my cousin today, "what is the gospel?" She answered, "love God and love your neighbor." She is a preachers wife. Nothing about faith, the cross, the resurrection, belief.

[@EnergyMizers]

I listened to Franklin Graham speaking to thousands Not one word was said about faith and Believing! Prayer and inviting Jesus into his heart! I think it is the Holy Spirit that comes in and resides when we believe the Blood pays for all our sins!

[@esthermalini8668]

Thank you . Without Paul / mystery by simple water down gospel one can get salvation ?

[@suzannemoore6115]

Actually, this is an amazing find. Read The Testament of the Patriarchs. In Benjamin’s testament he wrote of a future apostle to the gentiles who would redeem his tribe. He spoke more eloquently but he was obviously prophesying about Paul. It’s amazing. So Paul was actually prophesied. This was found in the Dead Sea Scrolls too. So it was written before Jesus, by Benjamin Jacob’s son.

[@Ravenhunter65]

I’ve heard other GRACE teachers say that The Gospel of God is information revealed to both Peter and Paul and as such is included in Peter’s GOK and Paul’s Gospel of Christ. Yet, you say the GOG is the GOC. Could you elaborate on this please?

[@jeannieboxford]

Justin Johnson, is it safe/right to say, that by the time God had completely set aside Israel as His special people, that they were {from there on} considered as gentiles? And therefore Paul is their apostle as well?

[@Corinna_Schuett_GER]

The problem is a false understanding of who "Israel" is. Most people think they're to be identified as orthodox Jews wearing a Kippa or doing Shabbat rites or they are inhabitants of the political state of Israel. This is a great error as historically the tribes of Israel (Northern Kingdom) already began to migrate and mingle with the nations all over the world after the first Assyrian captivity. Most of them don't even realize themselves they're genetically descendants from Jacob/Israel which is their identity in the FLESH only God can recognize today.

[@Corinna_Schuett_GER]

Genesis 3:15 the "proto-gospel" was of course promised to ALL nations already because ALL human descendants come from Adam and Eve in the first place, not only the Israelites. Also after the Great Flood, ALL nations repopulated from Noah and his family.

[@lagg-alot8308]

In the Old Testiment: Joel 1:1 The word of the LORD that came to Joel ..., Jeremiah 1:1 The words of Jeremiah ..., Amos 1:1 The words of Amos, who was ...; These would be considered "The Gospel of God through Joel", "The Gospel of Jeremiah", or "The Gospel of Amos" Respectively. The New Testiment written in Greek has ro include what it means: Rom 1:1-2 is just that, The Word of the LORD that His prophets spoke about Jesus being His Son, The Gospel of Christ is The Words by Christ and "My Gospel" would be Paul's good words Respectfully. The Word "Gospel" means "good words", "Gospel of ________" means "good words by". 😮
