Definitely not. Paul preached his message to Jews and Gentiles. His letters to the congregations were addressed to Christians, but Paul himself traveled widely in order to spread Christianity to non-Christians.

Who can preach the gospel?

A born-again Christian may preach the gospel of Jesus Christ if he has read and studied the New Testament in the Bible. Historically, both the Apostle Peter and the Apostle Paul were the first to preach the gospel after the resurrection of Jesus. Peter preached to the Jews, Paul was sent by Jesus to preach the gospel to the Gentiles (non-Jews). Thereafter, ordinary Christians "gossiped the gospel" throughout the Roman Empire and beyond. Once the church became established in the Roman Empire, preaching of the gospel became the job of the "professional clergy". Nowadays, an increasing number of born-again Christians seek to preach the gospel in their family, workplace and community, since few nowadays attend church, and so will never hear the gospel otherwise.

What moved Paul to preach to the Greeks?

Paul tells us that he realised at the time of his conversion that his mission was to preach to the Gentiles and Greeks (Galatians 1:15-16): "But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen ..."An alternative account is in Acts of the Apostles, written some decades after the time of Paul. It says that Paul originally preached only to the Jews, until after Peter proposed to the Council in Jerusalem that the Christians should preach to the Gentiles. On this account, Paul was sent to convert the Gentiles because of Peter's vision.


Who was Paul's companion on his first missionary journey?

Is there any evidence that paul presecuted christians?

In the Bible, it talks about how Paul's original name was Saul. He was an educated Jew who hated Christians. He was a part of persecutions of Christians, and the Bible has a specific passage in Acts that talks about Saul holding the coats of the men who stoned Stephen, and Christian. Saul eventually became a Christian after having an encounter with God while traveling from city to city. So yes, there is biblical evidence of Paul (back then Saul) persecuting Christians.
