A Wheel within a Wheel
Chapter 5
The Three Gospels
The Gospel of Jesus Christ
Within the Bible there are actually 3 gospels that are spoken about. They each have a specific purpose and are preached to three different groups of people in three different time periods. The first gospel is the everlasting gospel. It is the gospel that is all through the New Testament. This would be the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The word ‘gospel’ only shows up in the New Testament. You won’t find gospel in the Old Testament; however, the New Testament statement by Paul in 1Corinthinas 10:11 that links the New Testament with the Old Testament.
The gospel of Jesus Christ covers the entire Bible. Jesus Christ is the beginning and the end. From Genesis to Revelation is the gospel of Jesus Christ. His Word endureth forever and is the everlasting gospel. This next verse confirms this.
Mark 1:1, 2 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
There are 87 references to the gospel in the New Testament. Sometimes, ‘the gospel’ was referred to as our gospel. or my gospel by the apostles. All of these references are referring to the gospel of Jesus Christ. One time it is referred to as the everlasting gospel. It is everlasting because the word of the Lord endureth for ever.
1 Peter 1:25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
Revelation 14:6,7 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
The everlasting gospel which is the gospel of Jesus Christ contains a warning. That warning is judgment is coming. This warning is to the church. The church does not want to hear the message because they are totally apostate.
Nevertheless the warning must go out. See Ezekiel 3:17-21. All who fall under the judgment of God will have been warned. Whether they heed the warning or not is up to them, but the warning must be delivered. Once all that are to be warned have been warned, the next thing that occurs is found in the following passage.
Revelation 14:8-10 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
There is a change that occurs here. Once the everlasting gospel has been preached, the Tribulation for the church begins. The gospel that is preached precedes their Great Tribulation. The next two gospels are preached within the Tribulation.
The word ‘gospel’ only shows up in the New Testament. You won’t find gospel in the Old Testament; however, the New Testament statement by Paul in 1Corinthinas 10:11 that links the New Testament with the Old Testament.
The gospel of Jesus Christ covers the entire Bible. Jesus Christ is the beginning and the end. From Genesis to Revelation is the gospel of Jesus Christ. His Word endureth forever and is the everlasting gospel. This next verse confirms this.

There is a change that occurs here. Once the everlasting gospel has been preached, the Tribulation for the church begins. The gospel that is preached precedes their Great Tribulation. The next two gospels are preached within the Tribulation.
This Gospel
The other two gospels are found in the scriptures and both of them pertain to the end times. Both of them are to specific groups of people and both of them carry specific messages. Yet both of them fall under the everlasting gospel of Jesus Christ. They just contain a different message within them.
The second gospel is found only three times in the Bible. The second gospel is not another gospel. It is not even a different gospel. It is a variation or another phase of the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the gospel of Jesus Christ that is now decrypted using the Metaphorical Language and the Spiritual Overlay. All three references to this are specific to one group of the four groups listed earlier. That group is the 144,000.
Matthew 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.
This gospel that is spoken about in Matthew 24:14 is time specific. Once the everlasting gospel is preached, the judgment of the church begins. Once “this gospel” is preached, “then shall the end come.” The only time period that “this gospel” can be placed is in ‘the time of the end’. This gospel is preached during ‘the time of the end’ which as previously stated is the 3 years during which the 144,000 are waking up and learning.
Let’s look at the next two verses where ‘this gospel’ is spoken about.
Matthew 26:13 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.
Mark 14:9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
Both of these verses are saying the same thing. These verses are in the passages that speak about the anointing of Jesus by Mary prior to his death. Let’s look at a couple more verses to understand what this is all about. To see more detail on this story, (see Show 8 of “Signs of the Times” Series on the website).
John 12:7 But Jesus said, "Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial.
Matthew 26:12 For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.
This was an anointing that Mary did for and to Jesus. It was in preparation for His burial. This gospel contains within it the memorial of what Mary has done. Notice in the 2 verses above Matthew 26:13 and Mark 14:9 that there is a separate notation of the memorial to Mary. Both verses state that this gospel shall be preached. It then states in both verses “there shall also this” and “this also that she hath done”. Within “This Gospel” is the memorial that will be spoken of what Mary has done.
What Jesus stated about the memorial of what Mary had done was a prophetic statement about a future time when this would be spoken or told. Today this prophecy has now been fulfilled.
The significance of what Mary had done was the anointing she had done in preparation for the burial of Jesus. Just as in the Judas Cycle (See the upcoming chapter “The Judas Cycle” in this book and the series “The Judas Cycle” on this website www.thethreshingflooracademy.com) everything plays twice.
What Mary had done in preparing Jesus for His burial, the 144,000 prepare the Multitude for their burial. We now go to a verse located in Ephesians speaking about the armor of God. (To learn more about the armor of God, see the series “Boot Camp” located on this website www.thethreshingflooracademy.com.)
Ephesians 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
Ephesians 6:13-18 speaks about putting on the whole armor of God. Verse 15 quoted above is speaking about what is on your feet and it mentions “the gospel of peace” which we will discuss further in the next section.
What needs to be noted here is the phrase “the preparation” of the gospel of peace. The Gospel of Peace is what will be preached to the Multitude. The 144,000 during the ‘time of the end’ when “This Gospel” is being preached is to be making preparation for “The Gospel of Peace.” In other words, the 144,000 will be making preparations during this time to get prepared to witness and preach to the Multitude. How do we know that this message is to the 144,000 and not to everybody since the time of Jesus?
The armor of God is for all Christians since the time of Jesus. But there is a special message within these passages that also make it directed to the 144,000. It is located in Ephesians 6.
Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
What is the evil day? Let’s go to Ezekiel chapter 7 that we had previously quoted concerning the 2 time periods, specifically ‘the end’.
Ezekiel 7:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD; An evil, an only evil, behold, is come.
Ezekiel 7:6 An end is come, the end is come: it watcheth for thee; behold, it is come.
“An evil, an only evil” is the same as “the end”. The end is also known as “The Coming of the Son of Man”, “The Day of the Lord”, and “The Tribulation”. Then let’s bring in a quote for the Song of Moses which the Multitude sing.
Deuteronomy 31:29 For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
The “evil day” that is stated in Ephesians 6:13 is specific to the Tribulation. The feet of the 144,000 being shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace is preparation that is made by the 144,000 during the ‘time of the end’. The 144,000 will be preparing themselves for delivering “The Gospel of Peace” to the Multitude.
This Gospel will be preached to the 144,000 during ‘the time of the end’. This Gospel is the teaching and training of the 144,000. Part of this learning and training is preparing for what will be delivered to the Multitude though The Gospel of Peace. This Gospel is the “as it were a new song” that only the 144,000 can sing. The Serpents and Scorpions cannot hear it or understand it and the Multitude cannot receive it. Once the last of the 144,000 has received “This Gospel”, “The Gospel of Peace then emerges”.
The second gospel is found only three times in the Bible. The second gospel is not another gospel. It is not even a different gospel. It is a variation or another phase of the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the gospel of Jesus Christ that is now decrypted using the Metaphorical Language and the Spiritual Overlay. All three references to this are specific to one group of the four groups listed earlier. That group is the 144,000.
Matthew 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.
This gospel that is spoken about in Matthew 24:14 is time specific. Once the everlasting gospel is preached, the judgment of the church begins. Once “this gospel” is preached, “then shall the end come.” The only time period that “this gospel” can be placed is in ‘the time of the end’. This gospel is preached during ‘the time of the end’ which as previously stated is the 3 years during which the 144,000 are waking up and learning.
Let’s look at the next two verses where ‘this gospel’ is spoken about.
Matthew 26:13 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.
Mark 14:9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
Both of these verses are saying the same thing. These verses are in the passages that speak about the anointing of Jesus by Mary prior to his death. Let’s look at a couple more verses to understand what this is all about. To see more detail on this story, (see Show 8 of “Signs of the Times” Series on the website).
John 12:7 But Jesus said, "Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial.
Matthew 26:12 For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.
This was an anointing that Mary did for and to Jesus. It was in preparation for His burial. This gospel contains within it the memorial of what Mary has done.

Ephesians 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
Ephesians 6:13-18 speaks about putting on the whole armor of God. Verse 15 quoted above is speaking about what is on your feet and it mentions “the gospel of peace” which we will discuss further in the next section.

The armor of God is for all Christians since the time of Jesus. But there is a special message within these passages that also make it directed to the 144,000. It is located in Ephesians 6.
Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
What is the evil day? Let’s go to Ezekiel chapter 7 that we had previously quoted concerning the 2 time periods, specifically ‘the end’.
Ezekiel 7:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD; An evil, an only evil, behold, is come.
Ezekiel 7:6 An end is come, the end is come: it watcheth for thee; behold, it is come.
“An evil, an only evil” is the same as “the end”. The end is also known as “The Coming of the Son of Man”, “The Day of the Lord”, and “The Tribulation”. Then let’s bring in a quote for the Song of Moses which the Multitude sing.
Deuteronomy 31:29 For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
The “evil day” that is stated in Ephesians 6:13 is specific to the Tribulation. The feet of the 144,000 being shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace is preparation that is made by the 144,000 during the ‘time of the end’. The 144,000 will be preparing themselves for delivering “The Gospel of Peace” to the Multitude.
This Gospel will be preached to the 144,000 during ‘the time of the end’. This Gospel is the teaching and training of the 144,000. Part of this learning and training is preparing for what will be delivered to the Multitude though The Gospel of Peace. This Gospel is the “as it were a new song” that only the 144,000 can sing. The Serpents and Scorpions cannot hear it or understand it and the Multitude cannot receive it. Once the last of the 144,000 has received “This Gospel”, “The Gospel of Peace then emerges”.
The Gospel of Peace
The third gospel is again not another gospel. It is not a different gospel. It is a variation or another phase of the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the gospel of Jesus Christ that is specific to the Multitude. It is preached to the Multitude by the 144,000.
It will be a gospel that contains the messages to the Multitude of where they went wrong, what they must do to be saved which will include repenting and accepting their punishment that God has designated. There is no remission of sins without the sacrifice of blood. Since they turned away Jesus’ sacrifice of His blood for their sins, it is their own blood that must be spilled. They have rejected grace and put themselves under the law.
The Gospel of Peace is found only 2 times in the Bible with two other verses that are tied to the Gospel of Peace. Let’s look at scripture.
Ephesians 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
This one above we have covered previously.
Romans 10:15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
“How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace” is a direct tie to Ephesians 6:15 which are the 144,000 with their feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of Peace.
Following “the gospel of peace”, is “and bring glad tidings of good things!” That then ties it to two additional verses in the Old Testament.
Isaiah 52:7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
Nahum 1:15 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.
The phrases used in Isaiah 52:7 and Nahum 1:15 match what Paul stated in Romans 10:15. The Gospel of Peace spoken about in all three of those verses are referencing The Gospel of Peace. The connection to Ephesians and the feet of the 144,000 are connected to Isaiah 52:7 and Nahum 1:15. We need to now look at the surrounding verses to confirm that this is speaking about the end times that these verses are targeted for.
Isaiah chapter 52 is speaking about the redemption of Israel. This would be the redemption of the remnant of Israel, which is the 144,000 and the Multitude. We could do an entire chapter on just that chapter alone. Simply condensed, Isaiah 52 is speaking about the end times and the saving of the remnant. Let’s take a look at Nahum.
Nahum 1:6-15 Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him. The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him. But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies. What do ye imagine against the LORD? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time. For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry. There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the LORD, a wicked counsellor. Thus saith the LORD; Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more. For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder. And the LORD hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile. Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.
This entire passage is no doubt speaking about the Tribulation. The verses that state “him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace”, “that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation” and “bring glad tidings of good things!” are all elements of The Gospel of Peace.
The Gospel of Peace that will be delivered and preached to the Multitude will be good news. It will result in their salvation. There can’t be any better news than that. It just still needs to be prepared for their consumption and acceptance. This will be a future fulfillment that still needs to be accomplished. And it will be accomplished, for it is scripture.
The two differently identified gospels are both derived from the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is everlasting. The Gospel of Jesus Christ with the warning is preached until there are no more to reach. “This Gospel” transitions to the gospel that is designated for the 144,000 and is preached during the ‘time of the end.’ “The Gospel of Peace” transitions to the gospel that is designated for the Multitude and is preached in ‘the end.’
This Gospel is the new thing, as it were a new song, new wine, and new piece of cloth. If you are reading this, you are reading This Gospel. If you are listening to the Threshing Floor Shows, you are hearing This Gospel. If you are sharing this with others that have eyes to see and ears to hear, you are preaching This Gospel.
It will be a gospel that contains the messages to the Multitude of where they went wrong, what they must do to be saved which will include repenting and accepting their punishment that God has designated. There is no remission of sins without the sacrifice of blood. Since they turned away Jesus’ sacrifice of His blood for their sins, it is their own blood that must be spilled.
