    Peter faced a challenge after he had preached the Gospel to Cornelius. This first section of Acts 11 gives his answer to the charges against him. Good things happened at the end, though!

    Introduction: This first section of Acts 11, verses 1-18, describes Peter’s response to those who were upset he had eaten with Gentiles. This would certainly be Cornelius’ household in Caesarea (see Acts 10), but the Jews in Judea didn’t have all the facts. Peter gave a step by step account of what ...read more

    Have you ever wondered why God promised to reward us for the good deeds we do in this life?

    The first thought that occurs is that He loves us, and wants to reward our good deeds as a father would reward his child for a good report card. Romans 8:17b says, “...and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together." This is one ...read more

    A church split could have occurred in the Jerusalem church, but it didn't. That's the background of Acts 11:1-21. But a subtext is the role the Word of God played in the entire passage. Thats the subject of this passage.

    What to Do with God’s Word TEXT: Acts 11:1-21 – “And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God. 2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him, 3 Saying, Thou wentest ...read more

    Now the movement spreads into the Gentile arena. Did Jesus really mean take the gospel to the ends of the earth? Is it really for everybody? Including the porkchop eating, uncircumcised Gentiles? The invading Romans? Everybody? All means all.

    Peter shared the works of God in saving the Gentiles in Cornelius' house. This is the will of God. It brings challenges the church will have to grapple with, but the truth is, God will make the Jews and Gentiles one in Christ.

    Good morning. Glad to be able to meet up again and remember our Lord together as a Body of Christ.
