Week 6, Day 1
February 7, 2022 Scripture: Acts 10 The Spirit leads Peter and his fellow Apostles to see that the Good News is also for the Gentiles. Peter and Cornelius unite, and it becomes obvious, through the work and conviction of the Spirit that Gentiles now have a place in the family of God. Peter preaches a Gospel of forgiveness, “All the prophets testify about him (Jesus) that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.” (10:43) The magnitude of this event for the Jews is hard to describe. Much of the New Testament (Especially Galatians and Romans) is making sense of how Gentiles can now be a part of the family of God. None of the implications of this event are considered, all they are thinking about now is how the Spirit is moving them to react. They are convinced and convicted that the Good News is for all people. Spirit convict us of this truth again. Lead us to share the Good News with someone today. Spirit lead. Unite us with someone who needs you. Jordan
