?? No idea what you are talking about.
His sheep are those who belong to Him, some Jews some Gentiles. It was not till after Penetcost that we where invited along for the ride. And it has nothing to do with the law. PS not religious like God.
That is the problem. You have no idea as to what is being said. You are saying that Peter and the others were teaching the grace gospel along with Paul and that is certainly not supported by the scriptures shown below.
Think about this. Those under the Law will not believe in OSAS because they place their faith in their ability to not sin and their religious activities. Those under grace believe that we are not saved by what we do but by what Jesus did for us on the cross (paid for our sins of the flesh). You can't place your faith in your ability to do works to earn salvation and in what Jesus did for you at the same time. One cancels out the other.
All I hear from the religious is that Peter and Paul taught the same gospel. The scriptures do not support that idea. As far as the 21st Chapter of Acts we see James teaching the Jewish Law that had to be followed. James even tried to get Paul to go back under the Law but God did not let the ritual be completed.
Acts 21:18-24
18 On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.
19 When he had greeted them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.
20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, "You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law;
""""21 but they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs.""""
22 What then? The assembly must certainly meet, for they will hear that you have come.
23 Therefore do what we tell you: We have four men who have taken a vow.
24 Take them and be purified with them, and pay their expenses so that they may shave their heads, and that all may know that those things of which they were informed concerning you are nothing, but that you yourself also walk orderly and keep the law.
NKJV
Was Paul teaching that the Jews and the whole world was not under the law of Moses any longer??? Absolutely!!!!!! Was James teaching the same thing??? Absolutely NOT!
Gal 5:1-4
5 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
2 Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
3 And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law.
4 You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.
NKJV
Religious tradition has taught the world that Peter started the church on Pentecost. Not supported by the scriptures. Peter was certainly not preaching to the Gentiles on Pentecost. When he the said the following it was to the Jews only.
Acts 2:22
22 "Men of """Israel""", hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know —
NKJV
