Acts 15:1 - 15:35
ActsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg provides an in-depth analysis of Acts 15, a pivotal chapter in the development of the universal church. He discusses the controversy surrounding the requirement of circumcision for Gentile believers and the decision made by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem to allow uncircumcised individuals into the church. Gregg emphasizes the importance of spiritual life over institutionalized religion and the acceptance of Gentiles into the church based on faith and grace rather than external works or observances.
