The word "Gentiles" refers to everyone who is not Jewish.

5. What does verse 8 say Christians ought to be to the truth (KJV)?

Even when others disagree or go against the truth, many people believe it is important to stand up for the truth.

It says in III John 1:9, "I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not."

In modern terminology this would be known as slandering. Slandering can destroy a person if other people believe what they are told.
