SENT FORTH = AFTER HIS BAPTISM. John 17:18

Sure wotsup sure, its only your take that SENT FORTH = AFTER HIS BAPTISM.

This is what John 17:18 means

The Sending of Jesus into the World, Jesus here acknowledges that He was sent into the world by the Father. This refers to His incarnation, His coming down from heaven and taking on human form to fulfill God's plan of salvation. Jesus was sent into the world to reveal God's love, to teach His truths, and ultimately to offer Himself as a sacrifice for the redemption of humanity.

Sending His Disciples into the World. Jesus declares that just as the Father sent Him into the world, He is now sending His disciples into the world. This means that Jesus is commissioning His followers to continue His mission after His departure. They are to be His representatives and ambassadors, carrying His message of love, forgiveness, and salvation to the world.

The Purpose of Sending, The sending of Jesus and His disciples into the world is instrumental in spreading the good news of God's salvation. Jesus's mission on earth was to bring salvation, and now He entrusts His disciples with the responsibility to extend that mission. They are to share the truth of the Gospel, make disciples, and be a tangible representation of the love and grace of God in the world.

Yes, THROUGH Israel.
Matt 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Christ's role was to Israel and through Israel the rest would be saved.
But Israel STUMBLED at the Cross then FELL at the stoning of Stephen.
Acts 9:10-15 Enter Paul (The MYSTERY)
Acts 15:11 (Peter speaks) But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
Who's we ? - The Circumcision (Israel)Who's they ? - The Gentiles/heathen/UNcircumcision
