Can we agree that Gentiles are in the flesh without the spirit of Christ? They might be nice guys, but they mean nothing to God unless He or some Apostle can get them born again? I use the word Apostle because we are talking about the time period when the Scriptures were written. Now if this is true then how do we get a man that is half born again and half not born again and then call him a Gentile Christian? And a lot of people believe what I write. Do you not understand that those in the flesh do not belong to God?
Romans 8:-8-9
So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
It's only you who is conflating the word "Gentile" with the word "unbeliever" and implying that every time you see the word "Gentile" in the New Testament scriptures, it's talking about unbelievers.
But
Paul did not have the same conflated definition as you:
Romans 9
22 But what if God, willing to demonstrate his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience the objects of wrath prepared for destruction?
23 And what if he is willing to make known the wealth of his glory on the objects of mercy that he has prepared beforehand for glory -
24 even us,
whom he has called, not only from the Jews but also from the Gentiles?
25 As he also says in Hosea:
"I will call those who were not my people, 'My people,' and I will call her who was unloved, 'My beloved.'"
26 "And in the very place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,'
there they will be called 'sons of the living God.'"
Galatians 2
8 (for he who empowered Peter for his apostleship to the circumcised also empowered me
for my apostleship to the Gentiles)
12 Until certain people came from James, he had been
eating with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he stopped doing this and separated himself because he was afraid of those who were pro-circumcision.
14 But when I saw that they were not behaving consistently with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in front of them all, "If you,
although you are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you try to force the Gentiles to live like Jews?"
Galatians 3
14 in order that in Christ Jesus
the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles, so that we could receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.
Ephesians 3
1 For this reason I, Paul,
the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles -
Ephesians 3
6 namely, that through the gospel
the Gentiles are fellow heirs, fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus.1
Timothy 2
7 For this I was appointed a preacher and apostle - I am telling the truth; I am not lying -
and a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
Ephesians 2
11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh - who are called "uncircumcision" by the so-called "circumcision" that is performed on the body by human hands -
THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN GENTILES WHO ARE CHRISTIANS AND GENTILES WHO ARE UNBELIEVERS:
1 Thessalonians 4
3 For this is God's will: that you become holy, that you keep away from sexual immorality,
4 that each of you know how to possess his own body in holiness and honor,
5 not in lustful passion
like the Gentiles who do not know God.
The New Testament talks about Jews ("the circumcised") who are Christians and about Gentiles who are Christians, throughout the New Testament, making a distinction between them, though we are taught and understand that in Christ there is neither Jew nor Gentile.
God only sees Christ in His presence in the holy of holies in heaven, and those who are in Him through faith in Him, but God is omniscient and omnipresent so He also sees all unbelievers on earth who need His salvation - but God Himself, who inspired the scriptures, does not conflate the word "Gentiles" with "unbelievers" any more than He conflates the word "Jews" with "unbelievers" and God Himself knows the distinction between the circumcision and the uncircumcision.
You guys (you anyone who you say agrees with you) are so full of human intellect that you cannot even understand basic things like this.
