The Gospel of Paul
The Gospel of Jesus (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Gospel of Paul: The Gospel of Jesus<br><br>The object of this little work is to present in a popular form the teaching of the Apostle Paul with regard to the Life and Work of Jesus Christ, what he calls "his gospel," and to show how it harmonises with the teaching of Christ and His Apostles. While the cry of our day, "Back to Christ," has led to a more profound study of the words of Christ, it has to some extent tended to depreciate the teaching of Paul. It is true the Saviour does not dwell at length on His atoning death, but we can understand His silence when we remember the unwillingness of His hearers to listen to anything He had to say about His death. It must also be borne in mind that Paul claimed to have received his gospel from Christ Himself. What I have tried to do is to trace the gospel as presented by Paul in his Epistles. I have added three papers on the Epistle to the Hebrews and the General Epistles of Peter and John to exhibit the agreement between the teaching of the great Apostle and those who were the immediate disciples of the Saviour, or who represented the current teaching about the person and work of Christ.<br><br>The Rev. P. Rutherford and Rev. William Young, M.A., of Glasgow, have assisted me with the proof-sheets, and to them my grateful thanks are due.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
