Acts 10
ActsSteve Gregg
In Acts 10, Steve Gregg explains how the story of Cornelius emphasizes the inclusion of Gentiles in the kingdom of God and the importance of evangelism in the church's mission. The passage highlights the theme of the inclusiveness of God's salvation message and how it extends to all people, regardless of their background or perceived "uncleanness". Peter's encounter with Cornelius shows the significant turning point in the acceptance of Gentiles in the church, which was previously mostly Jewish. In addition, Peter's impulsive behavior and objections to Jesus' teachings show that he still struggled, despite being filled with the Holy Spirit.
