A Year in Luke/Actsનમૂનો

It doesn’t take very long for trouble. Although a thorough plan has been put in place to try and show concerned Jews that Paul does respect the law, it doesn’t work. Paul is seized by some Jews who claim that Paul is speaking against the people, the law, and the Temple (there it is again). Further, they wrongly believe that Paul has brought some Gentiles into the Temple. This really gets the crowd going!

Notice the pattern here. No matter how hard Christians try to explain their theology of the law and Temple, people become too enraged to hear. With the understanding of people becoming temples which house the presence of God, and all he has seen of the Spirit’s work amongst those who have never even been to Jerusalem, Paul would have no interest in trying to bring Gentiles into the Temple.
