Good point, an Apostle to the Gentiles.

Thank you, its great to see some here recognize the Paul was sent to the Gentiles by God and Christ Jesus. Grace to you.

Paul first preached to Jews, then throughout Judæa, and then to the Gentiles throughout the Roman world.

Acts 26:20: But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judæa, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

All can learn these truths from Galatians 2:7-9, where Peter perceived the grace that was given unto Paul, and Peter gave his right hand of fellowship to Paul; that Paul should go unto the heathen [Gentiles], and Peter and the other Apostles should go unto the circumcision Jews:

Galatians 2:7: But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;
Galatians 2:8: (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)
Galatians 2:9: And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
