Evangelism Among Jews And Gentiles Part 1
Though Jew and Gentile alike are saved upon the same basis of faith in the Cross, the early church did not approach evangelism and discipleship among Jew and Gentile homogenously. There was a clear order to evangelism (Acts 13:46ff; 18:4ff; Rom. 1:16), and there was a clear distinction in discipleship (Acts 15:19ff; 21:20-25). It would serve the Church well to see these distinctions, so that modern evangelists don’t unnecessarily offend both Jew and Gentile.
