A Journey Through Luke & Actsনমুনা

A Journey Through Luke & Acts

DAY 31 OF 40

In the next part of Acts, Paul discovers that there are some Jewish Christians who are claiming that non-Jewish Christians must become Jewish (by practicing circumcision, the Sabbath, and kosher food laws) in order to be a part of the Jesus movement. But Paul and Barnabas radically disagree, and they take the debate to a leadership council in Jerusalem for resolve. While there, Peter, Paul, and James (the brother of Jesus) point to the Scriptures and their experiences to show that God’s plan has always been to include all the nations. The council then makes a groundbreaking decision and clarifies that while non-Jewish Christians must stop participating in pagan temple sacrifices, they do not need to adopt an ethnically Jewish identity or obey the ritual laws and customs of the Torah. Jesus is the Jewish Messiah, but he is also the risen King of all nations. Membership in God’s Kingdom is not based on ethnicity or law but simply on trusting and obeying Jesus.
