Silas

We can see that at one time Silas was a so-called "kingdom saint," belonging to the church at Jerusalem:

"Then pleased it the apostles and elders with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas and Silas, chief men among the brethren" (Acts 15:22).

We can also see that later Silas went with Paul in order to confirm the churches which Paul had founded:

"And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God. And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches" (Acts 15:40-41).

Later both Paul and Silas preached the gospel to a Gentile, the Philippian jailer and his household:

"Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house" (Acts 16:29-32).

Again, Pastor Sadler says that the so-called "kingdom saints" confined their message to the "elect nation" but he fails to explain why Silas would preach to the Gentiles.

Apollos

At one time Apollos was a believer "knowing only the baptism of John":

"And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus. This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John" (Acts 18:24-25).

But later, after Aquila and Priscilla had "expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly" (v.26) we see Paul saying that Apollos watered what he had planted and they are both "one":

"Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one" (1 Cor.3:5-8).

Why would a so-called "kingdom saint" be watering what a Body saint had planted? That would make no sense. Apollos was watering what Paul had planted because both were members of the Body of Christ and both were ministering to those in the Body of Christ. Is in inconceivable that Apollos was not a member of the Body of Christ. Therefore Pastor Sadler's assertion that no one who was saved before the conversion of Paul became members of the Body of Chrtist is in error.
