I wonder if first century Jews said the same about Paul and the Gentile churches? They pressured the Gentiles to be circumcised and live by the law. Even after receiving letters from Jerusalem saying the Gentiles didn't have to keep Levitical law, there was still a lot of discussion about the topic because of the pressure to conform to Levitical teachings.
