Acts 15:1-12, The True Gospel - Faith in Jesus, Not Religion
Having returned to their home base in Antioch of Syria after completing their first missionary journey, Paul and Barnabas now confront men who came from Jerusalem to teach the new Gentile converts, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved” (Acts 15:1 NKJV). Understanding the urgency of this question – "Must Gentiles become Jews to be saved?" – Paul and Barnabas depart Antioch to take up the matter with the church leaders in Jerusalem in a momentous gathering now known as the Jerusalem Council. After much discussion, Peter rose up and reminded them how God had saved the believing Cornelius and other Gentiles years earlier. “Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles” (Acts 15:12 NKJV).
Pastor Kevin explains how this early incident typifies the many efforts of false teachers from the beginning of the Church Age until now to dilute the gospel of Jesus Christ and His words on the cross, “It is finished” (John 19:30 NKJV). Drawing from related Scriptures, Pastor Kevin emphasizes that we can add nothing to what Jesus has done on our behalf; we simply and only believe.
Maranatha!
