1 Peter 2:21-23
For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:

1 John 2:6
He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.

1 Corinthians 11:1
Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.
And 1 John 2:6 that we are walk just as He walked ??

But 1 Cor 11:1 says , You become IMTATORS of me ( meaning Paul ) just as I also am of Christ .

I believe that 1 John 2:6 is speaking to Israel .

And that 1 Cor 11:1 is speaking to the BODY OF CHRIST .

Jesus said Matthew 15 24 “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.” In the Greek He was not sent to anyone other than Israel.
Will you please read Acts 22:21 , where the Lord sends Paul far away to the GENTILES .

Yes, Paul was called to minister to the Gentiles. Acts 10:45 "The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on Gentiles."

And in Gal 2:7 we can all see the difference between Peter and Paul .

Peter received his message of THE CIRCUMCISION to preach to Israel in Act 2:38 .

Paul was given the GOSPEL of the UNCIRCUMCICION , by Revelation .

And Gal 2:14 all will see that Peter as practicing the LAW OF MOSES .

All that Christ is telling PETER is that a Change is coming and Acts 28:25-28 is the proof .

Has any seen that afer Acts 15 you do not head about Peter ??

Has anyone seen in Gal 2:11 Paul said Peter with HYPOCRISY !!

Then in verse 14 was being a Law keeper Peter was trying to COMPEL Gentiles to adopt Jewish Customs and RITES >
