Acts 11:1 - 30
ActsSteve Gregg
In Acts 11, Steve Gregg shares the story of Peter's visit to Cornelius' house, the first Gentile family to be converted to Christianity. This event challenges the idea that Gentiles had to become Jews to be saved and was controversial in the early church. The spread of Christianity to Gentile regions led to multitudes of people coming to Christ and the disciples becoming known as Christians. Gregg emphasizes that becoming a disciple of Christ means prioritizing Him over everything else, taking up the cross willingly, and recognizing that one belongs to God.
