If you don’t believe the record of Scripture when Paul says that he was commissioned to preach to the Gentiles and Peter to the Jews, I cannot help that.

It doesn’t matter who did what first. That is not a commission.

Let us examine Scripture for the real truth. Let us turn to:

Matthew 28: * 16f The eleven* disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them. 17* When they saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted. 18* g Then Jesus approached and said to them, “All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19h Go, therefore,* and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, 20i teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.* And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.”

Jesus told the Apostles to evangelize the whole world, not just the Jews, and long before Paul was converted.

I believe the Scriptural account of the commissioning.

No, you don't. And that is what is so puzzling. You claim it but you don't do it.

Mat 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Mat 10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
Mat 10:6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Are you being dishonest, or you just don't know scripture...

It doesn't bother me that you seem to know so little scripture but coming to a public forum apparently acting like a real authority on the bible is more than we can just stand by and let you get away with...
