Saint Paul believed that the message of Jesus was for all people, so he converted Gentiles into the Christian community. This angered some Palestinian Christians.
Paul the Apostle was known as the 'Apostle to the Gentiles.' He undertook a number of missionary journeys in which he preached to the gentiles.
