Acts 8:35

Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning at this Scripture, preached Jesus to him.

Jesus is The Gospel and The Gospel is Jesus

Jesus is The Gospel and The Gospel is Jesus
Today, tithes, offerings, prophecies and contributions have taken over the mesaage of the gospel

There is lot missing if you just pick the case of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch without carefully meditating on why Philip only need to centralize on Jesus.
The Ethiopian eunuch is already familiar with all that has been prophesied about the Messiah (Christ) and that's what he's reading aloud in the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) but he's confused as to who this person is. Act 8:32-33 compare to Isaiah 53:7-8

That's why Philip had to TEACH him that the prophecy is talking about the man who was killed by the Roman government for the offense of claiming he is God's Son! Matthew 26:59-68

Today most people want to PREACH but they've got nothing to TEACH and Jesus' order to his disciples is not just to preach rather we are to PREACH and TEACH because in that way a disciple baptized will know why he's been baptized not just becoming another misinformed churchgoer but fully competent and completely equipped to talk about his faith convincingly that Jesus is the Son of God! smiley

Jesus is The Gospel and The Gospel is Jesus
Jesus Christ is indeed God's New Covenant and Law in the Kingdom of God. He is the Truth and the Life, the promise of the New Covenant hence the embodiment of the Gospel. So anyone who teaches doctrines and traditions which are not as spoken by Jesus Christ, the Word of God Himself, teaches a false gospel. undecided
