Hi , and what Peter is adressing are all Jews and NOT Gentiles !!
dan p
It does not matter, it was still the Church, born again jews ! Peter was actually addressing Spiritual People who happened to be ethnic jews, other than that, ethnic jews are not the children of God Rom 9:8
Rom 2:28-29
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

I may have said this at some point, but I don't know if it is the truth or the whole truth if it is partly true.
Deuteronomy 10:12 (KJV) And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,
Deuteronomy 10:13 (KJV) To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
What the heck are you talking about ? You teach all kind of false doctrine !

Hi , and you say that Rom 10:9 and Eph 2:8 have the word Repentance ?

Hi , and just what I asked , is the word Repentance in Rom 10:9 , or is it in Eph 2:8 ?
No the word repentance are not in those verses. So Now what ?

Hi , and we all see that REPENTANCE/METANOIA , a " change of mind " was only given to Israel and not to the Body of Christ .
Israel was given the opportunity to REPENT of her sins and they would not and that is why John the Baptist came to cleanup the people for the MESSIAH which they Rejected .
Gentiles , in 1 Cor 2:14 , have the word and were Strangers from the Covenants , Eph 2:12 , and considered it all FOOLISHNESS and is only Spiritually Discerned , dan p
Hi , and we all see that REPENTANCE/METANOIA , a " change of mind " was only given to Israel and not to the Body of Christ .
Israel is the body of Christ, and Christ the Head of the Church has risen to give Repentance to Israel or to the Church Acts 5:30-31
30The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.
31Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
Jesus is the Head of the Church, thats who He died for ! Rev 22:16
I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
Eph 3:21
Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
Eph 5:25
25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Israel is not ethnic jews, for ethnic jews in and of themselves are not the children of God Rom 9:8 !
Rom 2:28-29
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Israel was given the opportunity to REPENT of her sins and they would not
Yes, Israel the Election did Repent, they were given Repentance, the only ones that did not repent were those who belonged to the seed of the serpent who John made it plain that Repentance was not for them Matt 3:5-6
5Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,
6And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.
But vs 7
7But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Those jews did not belong to the Elect, they belonged to the devil ! Christ did not Love them.
BTW those Jews that did repent along with John were the Bride of Christ, the Church, so John said this Jn 3:29
He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.
Who is John speaking of as the bridegroom ? Who is the Bride ? What is the Bride of Christ ?
Rom 2:28-29
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
