Last week we saw that men from Jerusalem had come to the churches of Antioch and Galatia with the message that 'faith alone' could not save a man, that works were also essential. We saw how strongly Paul opposed their message.
This week we listen to the Jerusalem council when not only Paul, but also Peter and James speak in favour of salvation by faith alone.
We also explore the strange list of four practices that are sent to the Gentile church with the request that these practices be avoided. What does food polluted by idols, sexual immorality, meat that is strangled and blood have in common? How would the believers of Gentile descent have heard this list? What does it mean for us today?
