The message of the cross has many facets. Many see it like when you have a good meal. They will say how good a certain portion on the plate was. Never remarking how good the whole meal was.
basically the cross message was hidden to most until they heard things like the gospel is often mentioned in the Prophets. Jesus shared things which the disciples didn't understand. Then on the Mount of transfiguration He showed only three disciples. Matt. 17: Jesus did preach the gospel of the kingdom.
Rom.10:15 here we have it called the gospel of peace. Would that be called another gospel? The answer-- in Rom. 14::17 the kingdom of God is, righteousness, (peace) and joy (in the Holy Spirit.) There you have the kingdom and peace together. One gospel.
The Greek is eirene-peace. in Hebrew it is shalom. it is true that we have peace with God when we receive his finished work in three days. shalom is the benefits of salvation that is the good tidings of great joy. Look at the word eirene. G1515. Mark 5:34, She will go in peace because of her faith. she receives her healing. important Rom. 10:15 and Eph. 6:15. the gospel of peace. it is the good tidings. both refer to feet.
What is the point. Jesus can be your savior He died on the cross was buried, and rose from the dead. He is the door to the kingdom. then you have eternal life. Then you have to always pray and apply the word of God by faith. Many miss this part. without faith it is impossible to please God. Heb. 11:6
So what is peace? Gen.26:29 H7965 shalom--a few picked here. complete lacking nothing, safe, health, prosperity, content, good relationships, active in his full covenant (his blood) no war, overcoming enemies. All this and more --favor with God. restoration, fullness. H7999 shalam. also sound mind and no fear.
Ps. 68: he daily loads me with benefits v. 11 and 19. read the whole chapter if you can. The Holy Spirit is the giver of power to walk in these gospel of the kingdom benefits. it is shalam finished and ended. Said on the cross.
faith-- forsake all I trust him. Baal-- believe apostacy all lost. bible-- believe in bible life eternal.
