60IN60 Day 54 - Fri Aug 23

It's Day 54 and we're in Acts 15.

Is the Bible an old dusty book? Nope - ". . . the Word of God is living and active. . ." (Hebrews 4:12). Dig into today expecting it to speak to you.

Where God Spoke To Me:
- Verses 25, 36-41 - In verse 25, they all come to agreement and everything is fine.  In verses 36-41, we're told of a disagreement between Paul and Barnabas that cause them to break up their partnership.  In other words, they were just like us: struggling to get along with each other.

Help:
- Verses 1-35 - This is a historic moment.  Now that God has opened the door for Gentiles to be saved (in addition to Jews), there is a moment where they have to decide "how 'Jewish' does God expect these Gentiles to be?"  (The answer: not very much.)

If you want to read the chapter online, here's a link.
