[Sweet Hour of Prayer]

I've read and re-read your writings about the "Lost Tribe", however, I don't understand how you can dispute that the original followers (Peter, James, John, Mark, Apollos, Paul) of Jesus Christ were ethnic and religious Jews. They initially spoke in the synagogues to other Jews until they were run off and started meeting in private homes. Initially, these people practiced Judiasm making them Jews.

Hello!  Oh, I certainly don't dispute that.  The disciples you mention were all Jews, Benjamites as I recall.  (I don't know about Apollos without looking it up.)

I was thinking of the people TO WHOM Jesus first sent his disciples in Galatia and other heavily Celtic lands.  Sorry if there was a misunderstanding.
