# 1 Will you show a verse How jews are saved today ?
Sure...
Acts 2:38..."Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."
And still, the Jews must remain faithful until the end to be found worthy of eternal life..
# 2 And who are the apostles that TAUGHT ?? The Twelve OR was it Paul ??
Peter was the first, on the day of Pentecost...Acts 2:38.
Presumably Philip taught it to the Samarians: (Acts 8:12), and also to the Ethiopian eunuch: (Acts 8:35-37)
Paul taught it to the Corinthians: (1 Cor 1:14-16, 18:8)
And Paul also taught it to the twelve at Ephesus: (Acts 19)
# 3 Do you have a verse where Gentiles are to be baptized ?
Yes, the verses listed above were Samarians, Corinthians, and an Ethiopian .
# 4 For the REMISSION of Sins ??
Acts 2:38, Acts 10:43, Rom 3:25.
# 5 verse where the BODY of Christ has to ENDURE to the END ??
Absolutely... Matt 10:22..."And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved."
Heb 6:15,
James 1:12.
# 6 Verse where the BODY of Christ will be RAISED , where Paul says THAT ??
Paul refers to it in Acts 17:18, 32..."
  1. Acts 17:18 Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached unto them Jesus, and the resurrection.
  2. Acts 17:32
    And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.
Acts 24:15 and Phil 3:11 are other references to the resurrection.

I hope that helps your understanding, to the glory of God.

And for just one , on Acts 2:38 , is that verse for :

# 1 For the the NEW COVENANT ?

# 2 Or is it for the BODY of CHRIST ?

# 3 Or is it for the MILLENNIAL KINGDOM ?

# 4 Or is it for the GREAT TRIBULTION ??

As Acts 2:36 , Peter is speaking to the house of Israel ??

The context is all Israel , so how can you use Acts 2:38 , since the BODY of Christ is NOT YET in Operation ?

Yes.

Yes.
# 3 Or is it for the MILLENNIAL KINGDOM ?
Don't know what you mean by that, as it is still in the future.
# 4 Or is it for the GREAT TRIBULTION ??
Which "it" are you referring to ?
As Acts 2:36 , Peter is speaking to the house of Israel ??
Peter is referring to all of Israel.
But indirectly to all who would eventually turn from darkness to the light.
The context is all Israel , so how can you use Acts 2:38 , since the BODY of Christ is NOT YET in Operation ?
Were not Peter and John etc. members of the body of Christ ?
I don't see them as being anything less than the first members of the body of Christ.

1 Cor 12;12..."For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ."
There is no demarcation between Israelite and Gentile anymore.

1 Cor 12;12..."For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ."
There is no demarcation between Israelite and Gentile anymore.
But the 12 apostles which Peter is numbered with , will be kings and priests in Millennial Kingdom and see Ex 19:6

and Rev 1:6 does not include the BODY of CHRIST !!

I do not agree.
And it is your right too have your opinion and that is where you stand today , BUT i had a verse as to where

the apostles , which includes Peter will be in the Millennial Kingdom , kings and priest s.

Most believers for get that the Body of Christ have a way better n position as WE are in the Body of CHRIST and an ''are

CHRIST , and will GOVERN the his Universe and also Govern his ANGELS in 1 Cor 6:2-3 !!

There is no special word "baptized". It's just "washed". Souls among all of those people were washed, improved, purified, made holy, in all of those events.
Just asking you ABOUT 1 Cor 10:2 , how will translate , and they were ALL BAPTIZED unto Moses, in the Cloud and in the

SEA !!!

1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; 4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. 5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
I Corinthians 10:1-5

Still "washed". But this is quite metaphorical. Notice verse 5, which refers to the incidents of God causing the killing of many of those "washed" in the cloud at Sinai, and "passed through the sea" at the Sea of Reeds.
