PAUL THE APOSTLE PREACHED THE GOSPEL TO THE GENTILES.
He explains the Gospel in the Book of Romans and in 1 Corinthians:
Romans 1 verses 1 to 4:
"Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God - the gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in Holy Scriptures regarding his Son, who as to his human nature was a descendant of David, and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the son of God, by his resurrection from the dead; Jesus Christ our Lord."
Romans 1 verses 16 and 17:
"I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes; first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous shall live by faith."
1 Corinthians Chapter 15 verses 1 to 5:
"Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise you have believed in vain. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance; that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter and then to the Twelve."

∙ 6y agoPaul told the Galatians that the way of salvation was through faith in Christ not by works:
Galatians 2:16 knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.

What special stewartship had God entrusted to paul?
God entrusted Paul with the stewardship of the gospel, to proclaim the message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ to both Jews and Gentiles. Paul saw himself as a servant of God chosen to spread the good news of redemption and reconciliation to the world.
Did the Galatians embrace a false gospel as quickly as they did Paul's message?
Yes it appears so.After Paul had left Galatia, false teachers entered the churches and introduced wrong doctrine. They taught that salvation was by faith in Christ plus keeping the law. Their message was a mixture of Christianity and Judaism, of grace and law, of Christ and Moses. They were proclaiming the gospel plus works.They also tried to turn the Galatians away from Paul by saying he was not a genuine apostle of the Lord and, therefore, his message was not reliable. They sought to destroy confidence in the message by undermining confidence in the messenger.
What were the special concerns of Saint Paul?
Paul was only concerned about one thing, this was that he would be a good steward of the gospel. He was prepared to take the gospel to where ever he was directed.

Why is it important that you learn about the gospel of Paul?
Technically speaking, there is no "Gospel of Paul" as there is a Gospel of Luke or a Gospel of John. I think what you are referencing is that Paul believed the that Gospel (the Good News about Jesus) was intended for non-Jews as well as Jews, and that God had called him to carry the Gospel to non-Jews. In addition, it is from Paul that we learn that we are made right with God through faith and not through works.
Why was Paul important to the Christan church?
Without Paul the Apostle, there would be no Gospel of Grace through faith alone, which is the doctrine of the Christian church in this current age of Grace. Paul received a new Revelation. "the mystery" of the Gospel of Grace through faith. John the Baptist, and Peter also preached Grace through belief and an act of obedience through baptism. Paul's message focused on Grace through faith alone. Paul received revelation from God, "the mystery", shared it with the 12 disciples in Israel, and then took the message of grace through faith to the rest of the world. The difference in Paul's message was that it was for people who did not have the benefit of a first hand knowledge of Jesus Christ, and his Resurrection. From a logical standpoint, it takes little faith to believe that which you witnessed with your own eyes. Peter's message at Pentecost reflected this first hand knowledge of the Resurrection of Jesus in Jerusalem at that time. Paul's message was for those outside Israel. Paul's Gospel (Romans 2:16)(acts 9:10-16) will expire at the Rapture, the two prophets of Revelation will preach a new message from God until Jesus Second Coming, at which time, Jesus "Kingdom Gospel" which he preached prior to The Cross, will again be in effect. Paul was a full Jew, and a Roman citizen. He wrote Romans through Philemon, which is the Word for the Church until the age of Grace expires. Peter confirms Paul's message in his own Epistles as well.
