Bro. George,
Thank you very much for the great study about Acts 2, that it concerned most primarily the Jews or to the Nation of Israel. While I agree with this one, my conviction is the same as with Bro. Parrish and so with Bro. Winman. The Gospel and Acts writer Luke and even Apostle Paul have this to say that the Gospel be preached amongst the Jews first, so that they were the very first recipient of the water baptism as commanded by our Lord in Matthew 28.
Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
