The Bible says that Peter was in Antioch at the same time that Paul was there. See Galatians 2:11.
Pay attention to what I wrote. The Bible shows that none of the 12 ever left Israel in order to carry out the so-called "great commission" unto the whole world, as Christ said they would do.
He sends the greetings of "she who is in Babylon," when visiting the Christian congregation there. He was obviously in Babylon. See I Peter 5:13.
No, it is not obvious. You're guessing that's where he was. And maybe he was...but it's a guess. Acts is a big book...28 chapters. Peter disappears after ch. 15.
John may not have been preaching on Patmos,
Now you're making stuff up.
Eusebius... Irenaeus...
When you have to quote wolves, you've already lost.
John did say he was on the island of Patmos, as I said (Revelation 1:9).
Not to preach the so-called "great commission."
The Great Commission was accomplished by the twelve.
No it wasn't.
They started it off, went throughout the land. Peter and John are shown, from the Bible, to have left Israel.
No. Christ said they'd go through all of Israel first, which would be converted, then unto the Gentile world. That did not happen.
Why do you want to argue over that?
I'm not arguing. I'm pointing out that you're wrong. The "great commission" never went forth as Christ said it would, as there is no record of the 12 preaching to any Gentile outside of Israel.
This dispensation of grace won't last forever. You need to stop trusting in what the Watchtower says you must do for God. You need to put your trust in what Christ has done for you, as His death, burial and resurrection are your only hope of forgiveness and justification before God.
