The Gospel =
Kingdom Now/Not Yet.
Inauguration/Consummation.
First coming/Second Coming.
Old things have passed away/the world will pass away.
All things are made new/we await the renewal of all things.
We've passed already from death to life/we await the future resurrection.
The prince of this world is judged/coming Day of judgment.
We are justified/we shall be saved from wrath.
We have eternal life/we shall inherit eternal life.
Christ in you/the hope of glory.
The time that spans in-between Messiah's first and second comings doesn't change anything: it's all part of the same Gospel/Kingdom scheme.
This is something brand new - unlike anything that was available under the Old Covenant law.
We therefore already live with a sense of fulfilment, even though we await its consummation.
This is the Gospel of the Kingdom - the Gospel of grace - the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. One Gospel!
The Apostles' doctrine.
