57. Acts 15 - Understanding the Gentile Prohibitions

Episode 57: Acts 15 - Who Were Those "Appointed to Eternal Life?"

October 19, 2022 - Host: Dr. Gregory Hall

In Acts 15, a decision is made. The question on the table was how to keep peace between the different cultural expectations of those who had come to faith in Jesus.  The list of action items they came up with might be a little surprising to our modern ears. But what’s really interesting… is something that didn’t make the list at all.
