Acts 13:46-47 KJV Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles. (47) For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth. |
Thanks for getting the quote (I'm battling the demon of laziness right now lol).
So a prophecy primarily pertaining to Christ is fulfilled by two Christians...
Actually it looks plausible that Paul is basically saying "we are going to the Gentiles in obedience to God because Christ is to enlighten the Gentiles".
