It's Day 50 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.)
