I know...and Paul was saved in Acts 9. Two chapters before Peter gave his Acts 11 preaching..
Okaaaaay. Peter experienced the Holy Spirit at Pentecost in Chapter 2 and began preaching and teaching and saving souls immediately.
Acts 2: 38 Peter (said) to them, "Repent and be baptized, 7 every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is made to you and to your children and to all those far off, whomever the Lord our God will call." 40 He testified with many other arguments, and was exhorting them, "Save yourselves from this corrupt generation." 41 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand persons were added that day.
Acts 9: 17 So Ananias went and entered the house; laying his hands on him, he said, "Saul, my brother, the Lord has sent me, Jesus who appeared to you on the way by which you came, that you may regain your sight and be filled with the holy Spirit." 18 Immediately things like scales fell from his eyes and he regained his sight. He got up and was baptized, 19 and when he had eaten, he recovered his strength. 5 He stayed some days with the disciples in Damascus, 20 and he began at once to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. 6 21 All who heard him were astounded and said, "Is not this the man who in Jerusalem ravaged those who call upon this name, and came here expressly to take them back in chains to the chief priests?" 22 But Saul grew all the stronger and confounded (the) Jews who lived in Damascus, proving that this is the Messiah. 23 After a long time had passed, the Jews conspired to kill him, 24 but their plot became known to Saul. Now they were keeping watch on the gates day and night so as to kill him, 25 but his disciples took him one night and let him down through an opening in the wall, lowering him in a basket. 26 When he arrived in Jerusalem 7 he tried to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple. 27 Then Barnabas took charge of him and brought him to the apostles, and he reported to them how on the way he had seen the Lord and that he had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken out boldly in the name of Jesus. 28 He moved about freely with them in Jerusalem, and spoke out boldly in the name of the Lord.
Paul got well and then hacked off all the Jews in Damascus. So he was smuggled out to Jerusalem to the Apostles. He immediately hacked off all the Hellenists in Jerusalem. So what were the Apostles to do? They were convinced that he was sent from Jesus, so in order to save his life once again, they shipped him out to Caesarea and told him to get himself to Tarsus.
So, explain this....
Why would the Holy Spirit send a vision to Peter which he came to understand that the dispensation of Jesus was meant for Gentiles as well as Jews?
Had Paul told him this? And if Peter was not the head, then why were the other Jews still grumbling that Peter had been with the uncircumcised?
Hadn’t Paul’s revelation been enough to quiet their doubts.?
Or did Paul not make this revelation known until after Peter’s vision.
And, last but not least. Why this answer from you rather than refuting my disagreement with your assessment of these passages?
It disproves a lot of what you have been claiming here, yet you don’t say one word about it. Rather you focus on the chronological events rather than the substance of the post.
