where does Jesus use the phrase, 'not all Christians'? By mere default his teachings are for ALL Christians are they not?
The verse you cited were instructions for the eleven remaining disciples, not ALL Christians as you are claiming.

It's not a epic fail at all. The instructions in Matthew 28:19-20 were for the eleven disciples or are you denying that?

They've never seen any of this in their churches and among their members. It is truly a mystery to them.
If their government tells them to go fight and kill, even ones of their own faith, they do it. Their governments insist on all to follow their leaders which they do instead of listening to the words of Christ words in showing love and peace to all. ...[text shortened]... rld just as is said in the Bible. So ones who do not fall in line with the world are it's enemy.
More AWAKE crap.

much of the instruction that was given to the apostles was by extension given to all Christians, for example, the sermon on the mount, Christs most famous teaching was directed primarily at the apostles yet its applicable to all Christians, that it does not specify that its for all Christians does not mean that its not, thus your argument is once again naught but futility and a striving after the wind. Fine you don't want to adopt the manner and the practices of Christ and the apostles, who the scriptures tell us went from house to house without let up, then thats your affair, we shall continue in this great work knowing that the Christ is with us until the conclusion of the system.

so what, the sermon on the mount was primarily delivered to the apostles , Christ did not specify that it was for all Christians yet it is clear that it is. Many of the illustrations were delivered only to the apostles yet are we to conclude that they are only relevant to them? hardly i don't think any Christian would acquiesce to such an unfounded stance. From the Bible record we can see that Christ later sent out seventy persons and that we find the apostles going from house to house without let up as well as Paul and others preaching and teaching in the market place, private houses and wherever people were on hand. Paul was not present when the Christ uttered those words was he yet he understood their import, and thus your case falls apart and can now be found, smoldering on the forum floor. RIP.

I have already provided you with scripture that refutes that Jesus said ALL CHRISTIAN do this or that. The apostle Paul states different tasks are assigned to the body of Christ by the Holy Spirit. Not all Christians are to be evangelists, or preachers, or pastors, etc. Each person is to receive his own calling. We are not all the same and we do not all have the same task. It does not work that way.

more lamebo excuses! give it up Hinds, Jesus said that he would be with those who were teaching and preaching until the conclusion of the system, the gift were temporary as has been pointed out to you, these are the facts.

Will you tell Jesus when he returns and asks for the talent that he gave you, ummm, it wasn't my calling, i didn't feel like it, i had a field to buy, i had something on in the microwave? I hid my light under a basket because i didn't feel like it, Good luck with that, you'll need it.

Peter speaking to all Christians,

But you are “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for special possession, that you should declare abroad the excellencies” of the One who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

are you no part of this nation Jonah Hinds?

He's absolutely scripturaly right on this point. Your crass protestations just make you look petty.

oh dear big mouth strikes again, read this crass protestation and tell us that it only applies to those who feel like it

But you are “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for special possession, that you should declare abroad the excellencies” of the One who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

but wait! perhaps you do not belong to this nation, you are no part of this Holy priesthood, this people for special possession, otherwise you would be declaring abroad the excellencies of the Christ instead of offering up lame excuses not to! Quite amazing for someone who claims to be a King and a Priest and who will rule with Christ for a thousand years, don't you think?

Unfortunatly your cultish pinhole perspective prevents you seeing past the erroneous dogma you have been forced-fed for decades; it dominates your every post and creates in you a spirit of agressive self-righteousness and abusive language. It speaks for you, it defines you, yet you cannot see it.
