Understanding the New Testament Gospel Differences (Part 8 --- Accompanying signs)
We continue with the comparison of the gospel of God and the gospel of Christ
by looking at key elements that distinguish them from each other. I recommend
to
start at the beginning of this comparison
to gain the necessary context of this series of posts.
The Kingdom gospel and the gospel of God had accompanying signs
The earthly ministry of Jesus was validated by a myriad of signs (or miracles) that He performed. These signs, according to prophecy, were to validate His ministry and prove to the Jews that He was their Messiah. To confirm this, John ends his gospel with a remarkable statement;
John 21:24-25 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true. 25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.
