Please find this verse.
He wont be able too . JESUS first preached to the jews . now it is true a few g entiles
were mentioned and JESUS did mention THEIR FAITH and one of them gentiles
HE even said , I have seen no greater faith no not in israel . That gentile BELEIVED ON JESUS .
Now they were few of course .
Even when JESUS saw g reeks coming to him , Oh yes that is made mention of my friend
HE knew the end was near . Some greeks had come to the feast seeking JESUS .
You probably might think i made that up . WELL OPEN BIBLE , read the gospel of JOHN .
But even JESUS had told his own when sending them out by twos
TO GO to the lost sheep of the house of israel . IT HAD to be preached to the jews FIRST .
GUESS what JESUS t old EVEN the jews who b elieved not on HIM .
EVEN though they cried WE LOVE GOD , WE HAVE ONE FATHER
HE said ya daddy be satan . NO MAN who is of GOD rejects JESUS CHRIST . NO MAN .
ANd all who do are not of GOD and shall all be damned and wailing will be heard .
NOW ITS TIME we get b usy preaching JESUS and ALL as in AWWWLLLL things HE DID teach .
And later all things we read IN ALL Letters of EVERY apostel from paul , to james , to jude , to peter , to john
to the writer of hebrews , who i THINK was paul . pretty sure it was anyway .
JESUS DIDNT COME to bring peace on earth . ANTI CHRIST DOES . NOW RUN , RUN , RUN
from anyone and anything that even utters the word ecuemincal , interfaith , interreligious dialgoue
FOR THEY are the DECIEVED leading the DECIEVED to the day OF thier own destruction .

Take a look at the nar and prostestant realm and a look at the RCC . THEY DO ITS WORK .
And if one will not see , if one will not exit this , There shall be no hope for them ON JESUS day .

IT is that serious . They lied to all religoins and to christendom . they lead them to THE LIE
and unto their own Destruction . And though they cry THIS be the way to attain world peace n safety ,
HEED THEM NOT . For on the day of the LORD it will be SUDDEN and SWIFT DESTRUCTION
that shall be RAINED DOWN UPON them all .
HE who recieves His testimony has set to his seal that GOD is true
And he who recieves not the testimony that GOD gave of the SON calls GOD A LIAR . Not gonna bode well for that camp .
WE cannot cliam to BLEIEVE and yet preach and allow UNBELIEF to remain on them false religons . A LIE
has been sold . WE must now exit any connection to this ecumeincal harlot and her many daughters .
The TIME to preach and to procliam the absolute and dire necessity to BELIEVE ON JESUS
and to observe all things HE did teach , is RIGHT NOW . Cause time be running out . THe end cometh .
New heavens and a new earth for all the sheep . Destruction and perditon upon all who denied HIM .
As usual - you have pridefully placed YOURSELF in Christ's Judgement Seat. YOU have absolutely NO power to judge anybody's soul or cast them into eternal damnation. YOUR judgeement on the soul of ANYONE means nothing . . .

The funniest part about your anti-Catholic hatred is that you refuse to admit that you wouldn't even HAVE a Bible if not for the Catholic Church.

It was the Church - and not YOU that preserved the Books of Scripture throughout the ages - to its own detriment.

It was the Church - and not YOU that traveled to the different regions, spreading the Gospel - even at the cost of their own lives by the same kind of anti-Christ bigots as YOU.

It was the Church - and not YOU that declared the Canon of Scripture under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, as Jesus promised (John 16:13).

- The Church is the Body of Christ and He is the Head (1 Cor. 12:12-31, Eph. 4:3-6, Col. 1:8).

- Jesus said that HE is the Light of the World (John 8:12).
Jesus also said that His Church is the Light of the world (Matt. 5:14).

- Jesus is Truth itself (John 14:6).

- The Church is the Pillar and Foundation of Truth (1 Tim. 3:15).

- Jesus promised His Church that the Holy Spirit would guide her to ALL Truth (John 16:12-15).

- Jesus told the leaders of His Church that WHATEVER they bound or loosed on earth would ALSO be bound and loosed in Heaven (Matt. 16:18-19, Matt. 18:15-18, John 20:21-23).

- The Church is the FULLNESS of Christ (Eph. 1:22-23).

- Jesus identifies His very SELF with His Church
(Acts 9:4-5).

When you reject the Church - you reject HIM.
Good luck
with that . . .

Many christains believe in A yeshua a jesus . Just not THE YESHUA , THE JESUS .
this too has become a very sad fact .
SO allow me to remind us YET again of THIS MESSIAH and HIS WORDS .
HE who recieves HIS testimony has set to his SEAL that GOD IS TRUE .
HE that recieves not the testimony that GOD gave of THE SON calls GOD A LIAR .
THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUE HOLY SPIRIT . AND IT darn sure aint gonna testify
of this LIE i seen all over interfaith interreligious dialgoue .
THE SPIRIT , THE HOLY ONE , TESTIFED TO my heart THAT JESUS IS MESSIAH , IS LORD
DID rise again and TESIFIED HIS WORDS ARE TRUTH and THEY ARE LIFE .
Many sit under men who unlike paul and the true ones do naught but DECIEVE this people and twist and omit
TRUTH for to please man and get fat pockets . OH YEAH grailhunter
PAULA WHITE do the work of satan . AND i aint just picking on her , MANY NOW DO
from the popes to the dopes of protestantville , MANY now follow another spirit and lead this people
TO THE LIE . THE LIE of UNBELEIF. THE LIE .
Paul never , john never , jude never , peter never , heck none of who i read about in the bible NEVER
DID go about to SEEK COMMON GROUND with the false , with the darkness .
But even in their days SOME DID .
And they rebuked them big t ime too .
OH yes there were some trying to appease and to p lease the jewish sanhedrian
SO They too tried to bring the church b ack under the law , SO AS they wo uld not be persecuted .
And paul writes about it . THE OFFENCE OF THE CROSS . OH its gonna offend all right
FOR Every religoin to include the unbelieving jews ARE and DO get offended at the preaching of JESUS .
BUT they have zero problem with finding common gro und and worse under a lie .
You might be wondering why even you perhaps have a big distaste for what i bring .
BUT DO REMEMBER , I bRING JESUS and the DIRE REMINDER that all other religoins are in darkness
and still serve satan , JUST LIKE WE ALL DID at one time . THEY must repent of their wicked satanic religoins .
YOU SEE , satan dont care what god ya worship or what religoin you serve
FOR HE Is father of them all . BUT HE SURE dont like it when men say , NOPE , THEY FALSE
ONLY THOSE WHOSE FAITH bE IN JESUS are t ruly serving GOD . OH THAT HE DO NOT LIKE AT ALL ,
NOR DOES MANY even in christendom . YA BETTER WATCH OUT , YA BETTER WATCH OUT .

You got Hell fire Christians that think only few will be saved.
You got universalists who think everyone is saved, no matter what they believe or do.
You have OSAS people that think you are saved as long as you believe and can do anything and still go to Heaven.
You have Calvinists that are OSAS and think people are robots of God and believe babies go to Hell if they are not saved.
You have Jehovah's Witnesses who think Yeshua was a prophet and only human.
You have homosexual denominations.

Christianity is a journey.....workout your salvation with fear and trembling....A lot of these people that are involved with these false beliefs will turn away from them eventually in their life.

Interesting . . .

Why is it that you NEVER respond to or defend your heretical or otherwise blasphemous posts when I expose you? Instead, you simply leave an emoticon (:().
However - we're told in Scripture to explain ourselves when asked (1 Pet. 3:15).

NOWHERE

Please find this verse.
Why do you need a verse. This is historical fact. Christians were established beyond Judea pre Paul. A Christian church was established in Antioch a gentile city before Paul.

There's no verse that says "Paul was the first and only person to preach to the gentiles". There are no bible verse specifically saying Paul was executed in Rome. But we have bible verses that say he was arrested and taken to Rome before Nero. As we know Paul was martyred. But we know he was executed in Rome under Nero.

The same with the early gentiles saved before Paul came along. We have bible verses saying there were Christians that fled Jerusalem to Antioch where a church was established before Paul. We even have a verse saying Paul was taken there to teach to the already newly saved Christians.

It would be the same for the other disiciples because Christ told them to go and spread the gospel to the world and we don't hear what happened about their preaching beyond Jerusalem. Because if they stayed we would have their writings. People would have recorded them just like Paul and Peter.

Otherwise we would have to conclude that they ignored Christ. They all recieved the spirit and I don't think they went on to deny Christ and not follow His instructions. I think that is more unbiblical. Because though it does not specifically say this word for word we can trust Christ and His disiciples to do the right thing.

Its just all of the news was coming out from Jerusalem and then nearby gentile churches. Because they were still linked to Jerusalem by disciples like Barnabas, Silas, Timothy and Paul traveling back and forth and working together. It seems it was the Roman empire that the church was focused on. Though there are writings from the eastern churches.

But as we know Judao Christianity stemmed from the Roman western empire.

You are quoting the exception.
See post 132
Its not the exceptions. I gave three specific people. But I also gave you an entire church and Christian community in Antioch before Paul.

Before Paul arrived, the Gentile Christians in Antioch were converted by Greek-speaking Jewish-Christian refugees (Hellenists) from Cyprus and Cyrene who fled Jerusalem following the stoning of Stephen.

The verses do not say specifically that "these gentile Christians were saved before Paul". But they say they were established before Paul. Acts 11 covers this. In particular verse 18 which showed the gentiles were now included because the spirit came upon them just like in the beginning with the Jewish disiciples.

When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, “So then, even to Gentiles God has granted repentance that leads to life.”

"Repentence that leads to life". This was the gospel. They now had no objections and people heard about this and the news spread that gentiles could be saved. This is well before Paul. Are we to believe that after this no gentiles were saved ?

and particularly just after verse 18 when this news spread

19 Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.

A great number of gentiles were saved and the Lords had a hand was in it of course through His spirit. Notice who spread the good news to the gentiles. It was men from Cyprus and Cyrene. The forgotton disiciples who preached the good news and saved many gentiles.

It was after this that Paul comes along. Barnabas was aleady overseering the growing gentile communities. When Paul came along later Barnabas thought of Paul (being appointed as disiciple to the gentiles) brought him in as the perfect leader and teacher and re-enforce the gospel and church.

22 News of this reached the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. 23 When he arrived and saw what the grace of God had done, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts. 24 He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.

25 Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul,

So Barbabas was also ministering to the gentiles before Paul. He became Pauls companion for much of his missionaries.

It seems the church in Antioch was happening far away and the disciples were not fully aware. It was like a seperate outbreak that happened as a result of Christians fleeing Jerusalem after Stephens execution. Which was very early after Christ. Once the news got out that the gentiles could also be saved it quickly spread beyond Jerusalem and Judea.

What you are doing is coming up with your own story, separate from the biblical account.
If the Jewish-Christians were converting Gentiles there really would not be a reason for Paul or the meeting in Acts 15.
