Hi to all , and one of the books of the Old Covenant , like Acts , I believe is Mis-understood by many , even Dispensationalist .
If , Paul was saved under the Gospel of the Kingdom , then , Paul had to preach the Law and the RITE of Water Baptisim , and Circumcision .
In Acts 21:18 the CONTEXT is Jewish as Paul meets with the Elders and James !!
In verse 19 , Paul gives a report as to his ministry AMONG THE GENTILES , can you believe THAT !!
In verse 20 , James points to all the Thousands of Zealous Jews that are keeping the LAW .
Then in verse 21 , " And they were INSTRUCTED / KATECHEO and being TAUGHT to Learn , and this is in the Past Tense of that time ,
that you Teach all the JEWS among the GENTILES A DEPARTURE ,
TEACHEST / DIDASKO which is in the PRESENT TENSE which means CONTINUALLY , ALWAYS .
A DEPARTURE from Moses , telling them NOT to CIRCUMCUISE the Children NOR to Walk ( by ) the CUSTOMS .
This shows that Paul's ministry was AMONG the Gentiles and PREACHING to the Jews , the MESSIAH and Grace to Gentiles !!
