Acts 10 -11: How Peter's Vision Changed the Course of History (Part 1/3)

This video is the first part of a three-part series on Acts 10-11, which delves into the inclusion of Gentiles in early Christianity. In this episode, we examine how many first-century Jews avoided close social interactions with Gentiles or Jewish "sinners" due to beliefs of potential negative influence, which was often explained through the language of purity. However, Peter's vision from God leads him to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with a Gentile named Cornelius, a Centurion living in Caesarea. This experience changes the course of history, as it lays the foundation for the mission to Gentiles and the Jerusalem Council of Acts 15, where church leaders discuss the requirement of circumcision for salvation and ultimately rule that Gentiles do not need to be circumcised or obey the whole law of Moses to become full members of God's holy people.
