I'm having to assume what your point is. I guess you want ETHNOS to mean the Jews only. Is that correct?
I'm not trying to be smart, but this is what I understand it to mean:
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
Hi and that is not correct !!
ETHNOS means , Gentile , or Race , or Jewish Nation or Heathen !!
Here is and easy one for you in John 10:48 !!
If we let Hin thus alone , all men will believe on Him and the Romans shall come and TAKE AWAY both out place and -------- .
Fill in the blank IF you can !! Does the Greek ETHNOS here mean :
#1 , Gentile
#2 , Jewish nation
#3 , Heathen
#4 , Pagan
You can not be HONEST and put in GENTILE , for it will read , " take away our Gentile , is the weong word !
The ETHNOS here means " take away our Jewish nation " DON'T you see .
What I am pointing out is that the CONTEXT says what to use !!
Many Greek words have many meaning !!
You Pentecostals are CLUELESS !!:rotfl::rotfl:
You will never be HONEST to the written word !!:bang::bang:
The all ETHNOS / NATIONS in Matt 28:19 and 20 speaks to the Jews that the 144,000 will reach during the Great Tribulation !!
What all Pentecostals FAIL to see , is that God has an Earthly people and a Heavenly people .
You Pentecostals want to live as JEWS and Pentecostals leave out the SABBATH and Animal Sacrifices and are JUST CLOSET , RCC to boot
