Generally speaking:
Our Israeli, Hebrew-minded, ancient idioms in language, later expressed through Greek language which was then translated into English, the historic, ancient understanding of that phraseology, has long since been lost lost where it speaks of "...every creature..." That command was known to be consistent with Christ's command to the disciples alone to go NOT unto the Gentiles nor even to the Samaritans with His Gospel. In other words, it was the responsibility of the twelve to go ONLY to the scattered Jews across every known nation at that time, and the world beyond. That responsibility alone had a reason behind it that is today lost to the minds of all the false teaching pastors and teachers out there.
The evidence for this is demonstrated here:
Acts 11:19 Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.
See that? The believing Jews continued what was commanded of the disciples. Ah, but ignorant rhetoricians today vomit their diatribes of replacement theology, spewing their trash all over those within hearing distance, each victim speckled with the flecks of falsehoods in the hopes that the "little leaven leavens the whole loaf," can, so they hope, add to their numbers an even bigger crowd of people who simply go along with whatever appeals to their sense of pride and emotions.
Moving on, we see this:
Acts 11:20 And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus.
It was the converted Gentiles who preached to other Gentiles, while the Jews stuck only to the Jews for their preaching of Christ Jesus.
Oh well, scripture doesn't matter one tinker's darn to those who love making garbage up that has no roots within the fertile bed of scripture. Systematic Theology is an almost a dead art form for dredging up truth from what ALL scripture says, AND what a small handful of scripture says in its historic, ancient meaning from language, dialect, culture and audience continuities.
Thanks for creating this thread. It's a good topic of study.
