checkit:
He made no distinction between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith.
- Peter (Acts 15:9)
WOORRRRD! Checkit, new testament badmamajamma Paul and his potna in ministry at the time, Barnabas, came to a head with some kats who came spittin' some CRAZY stuff like, "Yo yo yo yO! Unless you kats are circumsized, according to da custom taught by da original, da first, Moses, yooo.... you can't be saved son!" These peeps were spittin' this to the newly committed gentiles (aka, non-jewish peeps) who came to Christ. So Paul and Barnabas were like, "Yo, back up son, back UP! What in the WORLD kind of nonsense you tryin' to spit kid!?" Needless to say, there was a sharp dispute and debate that surged onward. So, they agreed amongst themselves that P and B would head up to Jerusalem to bring this question before da principle apostles (you know, J's hip original posse).
Cuttin' to the chase, one of J's closest apostles, Peter, stood and laced da track with some SIC truth. Followed by the finishing off maneuver played by Paul and Barnabas...... WAM.. BAM! Thank you very much! So, n e who, Peter spat the above verse. Peter pointed out that Pops above HIMSELF made no distinction, and demonstrated this by giving the gentiles the Holy Spirit, JUST AS HE GAVE the Holy Spirit to da apostles and the other Jewish disciples! No no no, he purified their hearts by FAITH! It is faith that has set them free and brought them saving grace. TRUUUUUUUUUUU! You GO Peter! What's the bottom line? There is no distinction between Jew and Gentile. Anybody who is anybody can come to know God, can come to be blessed by God, can come to know freedom and Life as they have never known before.
BAM.
PeACE my bruthas and sistas!
G-bless
