Acts 2:38: Is THIS the gospel that we preach today?

Israel was to get the gospel
FIRST
, and then go to the gentiles.
If the Kingdom wasn't even OFFERED to Israel until Acts 3, then this
cannot be the church, the body of Christ in Acts 2.
God was still dealing with Israel here and the body of Christ was still a MYSTERY, HID IN GOD (according to what the scriptures SAY.)
Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. ((((please read the entire second chapter of acts to get the full context)))) This is the gospel of the KINGDOM/for the nation ISRAEL...not for we the Body of Christ.
Peter tells them to repent and be baptized for the remission of sins..... is this the same message we see Paul preaching as the gospel of OUR salvation?
This gospel that Peter preached was called the "gospel of the circumcision", or the "kingdom gospel"...these phrases identified this particular "good news' as being to the NATION OF ISRAEL alone. It is with this NATION that God had a covenant...and the OLD and NEW covenant He made with HER has nothing to do with the "gospel of the GRACE of God " that Paul ushered in in Acts 9. God made the NEW COVENANT with the same folks he made the OLD COVENANT with (see Jer. 31: 31 for proof!)
Is this the same as Christ died for your sins, was buried, and rose again for your justification? (Take note in Acts 2, Peter said Christ was to be raised to sit on David's throne, and David never HAD a THRONE IN HEAVEN, his throne was to be ON THE EARTH.... Paul tells us Christ was raised for our justification, verses following)
1 Corinthians 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;1 Corinthians 15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Romans 4:25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
2 Timothy 2:7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.2 Timothy 2:8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

Anyone want to discuss the differences seen here? You see them dont ya? Its OBVIOUS that Peter and Paul werent preaching the same thing to the same audience. Peter went to a gentile ONCE and never did again. None of the other apostles ever went to a gentile. They were told by Christ NOT TO and they obeyed.
So when did things CHANGE? Are ya even curious?

Does anyone see that the "church" here in acts 2 is still a JEWISH ONE?
