And why does the destination of any particular Apostle not concern us? The argument here is that they never ministered to the Gentiles, most vehemently.

That is not the argument and never has been...

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:

Initially, the Gospel of the Kingdoms was for the Jews...But no one was required to keep his mouth shut if a Gentile approached...Later, after the Jews rejected Jesus, it was revealed to Peter that the Gospel would also go out to Gentiles because NOW, there was no difference between Jew and Greek...And to get it thru Peter's thick head, Peter was required to pick up the first Gentile convert...You remember the story; where someone bowed to Peter and Peter said, 'get up', I ain't no pope...I'm just a normal man like you are...

So the apostles then preached to anyone who would listen...

And of course it was after that the the commission for the Jewish apostles was to send them to where Jews lived...And for Paul, he was sent to where Gentiles lived...Even if there were Jews and Gentiles in those respective areas...

Even satan misquotes scripture to his own end

There weren't any Jews in what is now Russia, or what is now France, or what is now Germany, nor in India. Yet the Apostles went there - we have the evidence.
