Acts 10:24 - 11:30 (Part 8)

Are you dividing yourself from people whom you view as "common and unclean" as the Jews viewed the Gentiles? God shows Peter that He shows no partiality, and Peter should not either as he shares the Gospel, as it is written that "all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in Jesus receives forgiveness of sins through His name." The Holy Spirit falls upon the Gentiles, as it did the Jews following Jesus, so Peter has them baptized. The first conversions of Gentiles through the work of Peter, paves the way for Paul and his ministry in southeast Europe: modern-day Turkey, Greece, and Italy. As the warning of an approaching famine is received, do the Jesus-loving Jews and Gentiles find a way to support each other? What do they call this new gathering of people from different backgrounds who worship Jesus? In applying today's study to your own life, how can acts of kindness, charity, and love with those who we are at odds with bring about a unity and a dissolving of anger? Join us as Amy delves into these questions and how having a teachable spirit is needed. Stay tuned until the end for further encouragement on prayer and the necessity of it for our country, for our world.
