No, that is not my idea. But you're wrong to say that making disciples is impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Persecution of Paul always involved the Jewish religious leaders, Pharasies and the Sadducees. I never said the Jews didn't persecute Paul, but Paul was opposed and persecuted by Gentiles, as well. This is the 2nd time I have had repeat that point. Quote What we do find in Acts, is that Paul had unbelievers as friends. And when Paul wanted to go into the assembly, the disciples would not let him. Also some of the Asiarchs who were friends of his sent to him and repeatedly urged him not to venture into the theater. (Acts 19:30-31) But you are interpreting "friends" to mean what WE mean and not what it meant to them. They were not "friends" in the sense of companions that spend time together. These were people in high social circles. They had charge over the theater and were favorably disposed to Paul did not to seem him come to danger, but they are not "friends" in the sense that you are trying to present in this thread.

Jesus close inner circle of friends was made up of Peter, James and John. They were the disciples closest to Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus was accessible to sinners and He did not dissociate Himself from them. But that doesn't mean he "hung out" with them. It doesn't mean that He was "friends" with them. I'm not going to argue with you on the definition of "Hanging out." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the cases where gentiles were involved, they were always influenced by the Jewish leaders who intentionally stirred up the crowds. Are you sure? It looks like the word "friend" is being used in the same context and with the same intent in other parts of the New Testament including when Jesus used the term. FINISH IT .

I can see that you are hell bent on promoting anti-Semitism and I am not going to give you an audience for that. I have made my point and I dont' have to explain it to you any further.

No, it doesn't look like that. Two different contexts and two different usages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
