Acts 10:34-43 The Gentiles Get The Message

"There can be no faith apart from the Word of God," (Romans 10:17).  Peter shared the new testament he'd been given by God, particularly that "God is no respecter of persons as far as nationality and race are concerned.  When it comes to sin and salvation, there is no difference.  All men have the same Creator and all men need the same Savior ... Cornelius and his family quickly applied the message to themselves, believed on Jesus Christ, and were saved," my commentary said.

"The Holy Spirit was giving witness to the six Jews who were present that the Gentiles were truly born again.  These men had not seen the vision with Peter, and they needed to understand that the Gentiles were now on an equal footing with the Jews."

Father, this is, as always, incredible news for everyone.  Help me to share it readily!
