I quoted 1 Peter 5 as teaching that Christ is shepherd to believers, and you replied “ Peter is writing to Jews” That seems to imply that the passage does not apply to Gentiles, only to Jews. So because Paul was writing to Gentiles in Ephesians 2, does that mean that Ephesians 2:8-10 doesn’t...

Was the Great commission clear? How about the part in Mark about preaching the Gospel to every creature. How about the Gentile passages in Isaiah? Were they ambiguous?

Yes, but that doesn’t mean that passages like 1 Peter 5 are irrelevant to us though. When someone answers a question with a New Testament citation, and the other says “that was written to Jews” as a refutation through claiming it is inapplicable to us, the second person is ignoring the fact...

It was hidden in plain view though.

Well if you believe that parts of the NT are irrelevant to certain groups of Christians, that seems to be error to me.

There is a future fulfillment of these things, yes. But God did not intend one thing and switch to plan b when it didn’t work out. He has perfect foreknowledge And to say that is not Arminianism as TF thinks.

There are not two different NTs one for Jews and one for Gentiles. You keep implying things like Peter’s epistles only applies to Jews, which is like saying there are two parts of the Bible. One for this group and one for that. You probably think the sermon on the mount is not for us either

It was revealed to Peter first. You’re all mixed up about almost everything. Paul had a special ministry. But he was not founding a different Christianity than the Jewish Christianity as if there is one gospel for Jews and one for Gentiles. Some of your posts seem to hint at this.

It will be fulfilled. We don’t know when, but God knows. The prophecy means what it says and it will be fulfilled in the way that God said it in the time that only He knows.

No. What I said is only not true if open theism is true, and open theism is not true.

Do you want a verse for 1,306 too? You always ask for verses for obvious things.

some apostles went to the Jews some to the Gentiles. Because of different cultures.

But God doesn’t need to look back. It’s about His intentions, not ours. God is the one who decided, not the apostles, not us.

Home missions and foreign missions

Not in rebellion. Unaware of the scope of the Gospel. Even though the scope of the Gospel was foretold by the prophets and Jesus. Paul even had to correct Peter, AFTER the Cornelius event.

No. Because anti Gentile bias was still strong.

Is that how it happened?

Did the nation repent? I was unaware of that.

What do you do with the verse if they fall away, it is impossible to renew them unto repentance in Heb 6.
