did apostle try to convert people after jesus?

[alishan]

Except Paul who have converted many people after jesus "death", did the other apostle have the same behaviour? did they try to convert people?

apostle like jack simeon John...

thanks

 

[Terrywoodenpic]

yes... however unlike him they did not write many epistles about it.
Most of them died as martyrs.

 

[Beta1]

But even though the original Apostles (persecuted and killed) are long dead they still speak to us through scripture - AS DOES JESUS !
True followers even today are BUILT UPON THEIR FOUNDATIONS ! Eph.2v18-22.

Jesus said the gates of hell shall not prevail against His Church.:no:

 

[Kurohige]

well of course all the disciples did convert a lot of people, remember Jesus never found Christianity the founder of Christianity was paul, and the differences in philosophy between peter and paul was the beginning of the division of the Christian phylosophy.

yes i have heard that only Paul did convert the non jew , and Jack the chief of the temple didnt try to convert people as much. so did paul the only to convert non jew people or apostle did it?

Many of them went to the Gentiles,The leader of the first mission that Paul went on, was Barnabas.
The Gnostic Gospels also show that Mary Magdalene also went to the Gentiles.

Who do you think went to teach in Egypt and form the Coptic Church, or all the other North African and Eastern Churches. Which even today have teachings distinct from Paul.

There were unrecorded missions through out Europe as far as northern England and Scandinavia during that first century. That the names are not now known, does not mean no one went, as they clearly did.

 

[alishan]

yes

but even if there were other people of paul who came to the gentile but it s still the team of Paul as barnabas was with him.

when i speak about other apostle i speak about the ebionit , like jack simeon , and other famous apostle .

but do you agree that majority of gentil enter christianity by paul?

did jack went to the gentile as he was the chief of jerusalem temple?

When Paul went with Banabas , Banabas was his boss.

Much of Christianity that came out of the Roman Church was influenced by Paul.
However that does not include all of the modern Christanity. The orthodox churches seem to have other influences as do the Coptic, Ethopianand other eastern churches.

James and Peter were the senior apostles in Jerusalem. No Christians were accepted in the Temple. I am not sure who you mean by Jack.

 

[alishan]

but the word christian date back to which century?

jack is james i think, he was the first chief of the temple.

so the ortodox christian 's origin date back to whose apostle?

James is known as the brother of Jesus. none of the appostles were in the Temple.

We have little Idea historically which Appostle went where or formed which church. Unlike Paul they did not write letters to their churches. nor can any writings or Gospels be accurately attributed to them.

Bishops of Jerusalem
See also: Early centers of Christianity#Jerusalem
Eusebius of Caesarea provides the names of an unbroken succession of thirty-six Bishops of Jerusalem up to the year 324.[4] The first sixteen of these bishops were of Palestinian Jewish origin Christians—from James the Just through Judas († 135)—the remainder were Gentiles:
"But since the bishops of the circumcision ceased at this time [after Bar Kokhba's revolt], it is proper to give here a list of their names from the beginning. The first, then, was James, the so-called brother of the Lord; the second, Symeon; the third, Justus; the fourth, Zacchaeus; the fifth, Tobias; the sixth, Benjamin; the seventh, John; the eighth, Matthias; the ninth, Philip; the tenth, Seneca; the eleventh, Justus; the twelfth, Levi; the thirteenth, Ephres; the fourteenth, Joseph; and finally, the fifteenth, Judas. These are the bishops of Jerusalem that lived between the age of the apostles and the time referred to, all of them belonging to the circumcision."[5]
James the Just, whose judgment was adopted in the Apostolic Decree of Acts 15:19-29, "...we should write to them [Gentiles] to abstain only from things polluted by idols and from fornication and from whatever has been strangled and from blood..." (NRSV)

1. James the Just (until 62)
2. Simeon I (62-107)
3. Justus I (107-113)
4. Zaccheus (113-???)
5. Tobias (???-???)
6. Benjamin I (???-117)
7. John I (117-???)
8. Matthias I (???-120)

james the just isn't he an apostle? and simeon?

 

[ZooGirl02]

Well, apparently Peter evangelized and baptized. It is right there in the book of Acts.

And Peter said to them, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself." And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, "Save yourselves from this crooked generation." So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.
(Acts 2:38-41 ESV)

what is book of acts , is it evangile of peter?

 

[Pegg]

yes i have heard that only Paul did convert the non jew , and Jack the chief of the temple didnt try to convert people as much. so did paul the only to convert non jew people or apostle did it?

It was actually the Apostle Peter who converted the first gentile believer.

Paul came onto the scene several years AFTER christianity was already established. When Paul converted to Christianity, the congregations were afraid of him because he had been a persecutor of the followers.

So many congregations were already established before Paul arrived which can only indicate that the other Apostles of Christ were actively converting people. The book of Acts is the record of the beginnings of christianity. Read that for full details on Pauls conversion to christianity.

the book of Acts was written by the disciple Luke. Luke was also the writer of the Gospel of Luke.

Acts is Lukes account of how christianity began...it covers the time from the ascension of Christ to the final imprisonment of Paul in Rome. Roughly the years it covers are from 33ce - 61ce
