OK, your supposed "first" gospel.
Mt 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
OK Chette, is this what Christians should do? This gospel is to be preached in all the world unto all nations. That means Gentiles too.
Of course, if it is the gospel to believe on Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, it is not a problem, it would be the same gospel.
And what gospel did Jesus preach to the Jews?
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Remember who Jesus was speaking to when he said this? Nicodemus, a Jew.
What works were the Jews to do?
John 6:28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
No baptism mentioned here, simply believe on him whom God hath sent. Jesus. Same gospel I heard when I got saved.
