Acts 15:7-11
-
7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
-
8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
-
9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
-
10 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
-
11 But we believe that through the grace of the LORD Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
