The words Jewish Christianity and Jewish Christian’s do not appear in the Bible either. So if that means Gentiles we’re not Christian’s then neither were Jews. That doesn’t prove anything.
So because words are absent in the Bible means other words in the not in the Bible must be true?
Every source I have read about the church at Antioch says that it was a mixed congregation of Jews and Gentiles
Sources you read from Christianity paint their own picture and there are many more things they say that do not align with the Bible or history. The Bible facts and the timing tell a different story. Over 8 billion people on earth today were born since the 1930's, 2.5 billion follow some form of progressive liberal Christianity in religions people started 500 years ago. People believe Christianity is true and they believe Christians and Christian beliefs are in the Bible. They are not. The fact is that Peter's Jewish church never accepted the Gentiles. The real Jesus never taught or ministered to the Gentiles. Jesus ignored the Gentiles, told His disciples not to go to the Gentiles, and called the non-Jews “dogs.” The Jews never went to the Gentiles. Jesus never had anything to do with the Gentiles and never said anything positive about them. Neither did the disciples, who had no dealings with the people they called heathens, sinners, unclean, uncircumcised, pagans―and dogs. They encouraged Jesus to have nothing to do with the bothersome Canaanite woman who pleaded her case to Jesus for the restoration of her daughter’s health. The Jews in the days of Jesus had nothing to do with Gentiles, and Jesus never told the Jews otherwise, and nowhere in the Bible do we see a change in this attitude, nor do we see anything different from the Jews throughout the last two millennia, including today. God in Christ to us through Paul never united the Jews and Gentiles, saying nothing about the two coming together as one. As hard as Paul tried to bring the Jews to faith, they repeatedly rejected him. Never did the Jews and Gentiles come together, never did the Jews receive God's Spirit, and never did the Jews want anything to do with Paul or the Gentiles. Much of what Christianity believes came from false ideas and concepts passed down through the centuries, none of it true. Find any proof that the Gentiles co-worshiped in the Bible. You will also find people saying the Christian church began in Acts 2, an obvious impossibility. But that too, has made the rounds and became a self validating fact that everyone has heard all their lives and accepts it as truth. And there are many more that fill the many religions to overflowing. Just read the Bible. You assuming that there must have been Jews and Gentiles and believing what some someone wrote as gospel truth that has no validation is not biblical proof. Simply read the Bible and see if what the Bible actually says is what you believe.
You said….
“Peter always and only wrote to the Jews about the Jews for the Jews without mention or consideration to the Gentiles, let alone the Body of Christ. Paul writing "anyone" referred to the Jews to whom he wrote, not Gentiles and not "Christians." Nor does this mention have anything
Everything Peter, James, John, Jude and the writer of Hebrews ever wrote was to the Jews, never the Gentiles. Read the text carefully. The Hebrew epistles were written by men who did not have the indwelling Spirit and the discernment and understanding that follows. When Jesus spoke in the Gospel accounts He spoke to the Jews who did not have the indwelling Spirit, and never to the Gentiles. What many Christians believe are things they think the Bible says, not what the Bible actually says.
There is plenty of evidence in the scriptures that Paul often turned away from the Jews to the gentiles and preached and worked with them.
Yes, Paul went to the Gentiles. Paul also sought the Jews numerous times for their conversion.
Do you really believe that there were no gentiles in any of these churches???? Assumption!! Again. No proof! You are on sinking sand.
And show your proof that there were.... All the New Testament as a whole, not pieces here and there, are what tell the story. Christianity is in the fix it is in today from years of selectively taking a verse here and a verse there and boot-strapping them together to say what the Bible does not say at all.
You said the Bible does not speak of gentile Christianity or gentile Christian’s. Well,
“Jewish Christian” and Jewish Christianity do not appear in the Bible either. Acts 11:26 the word “disciples” includes both gentiles and Jews. It doesn’t mean “only Jews.” That doesn’t prove anything!!
Act 11:26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
Notice they were first called Christians, they did not call themselves Christians. The only thing you find in the Bible are Jews that did not want anyone to call them Christians. The word was a pejorative term leveled at Jesus-believing Jews that the culture considered a cult.
1Pe_3:14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
1Pe_3:17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
1Pe_4:15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
1Pe_4:16 Yet if any man
suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
In their 30 plus years of ministry, Peter, Paul, James, John, Jude and the rest never called themselves, their followers, or their church Christian. No one in the Bible ever called themselves Christian. This idea that Christians as Gentile Christians exist in the Bible is what religions assume without proof. Find one instance anywhere in the Bible of such a thing. Nowhere in the Bible were Gentiles called Christians. You assume they were.
