Acts 15:6-11 In Antioch, Gentile believers were living freely in Christ. Unfortunately, their freedom (salvation) was not celebrated by all. In the eyes of a group that had come Judea, they deemed the Gentiles salvation insufficient. This heresy was a direct challenge the 'heart' of salvation (God's grace). Their agenda was adamant 'Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.' Paul and Barnabas were sent to Jerusalem. They met with the apostles and elders to consider a consequential matter. The meeting of the minds wasn't just about differences of opinion; it was a critical time for the early church both theologically and culturally.
