Acts 15—This is the difficult Scripture. Remember that we covered in part two, Matt. 19 that they read that where Jesus told the young man to keep the Commandments and He listed all of them but He didn’t list the Sabbath so they say, ‘He didn’t list the Sabbath so we don’t have to keep it.’ Well, he didn’t list some others either, but He also said, ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’

Here in Acts 15 is quite a problem that they had. Most of the problems in the New Testament are not Catholic vs Protestant, but they are the Truth vs Judaism! Keep that in mind.

Now under the covenant with Israel, all males had to be circumcised on the eighth day. As things developed at the time coming down to Jesus’ time, they had a lot of Gentiles who wanted also to partake of the religion of the Jews.

The Gentiles, in order to attend the synagogue, had to be circumcised. This became a problem within the Church, because now Jesus gave the commandment for them to go into all nations and baptize all of them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Now that’s another difficult Scripture, but that doesn’t give you the Trinity. We need to be baptized into the name of the Father because we’re going to be a son or daughter of God, and of Christ because His sacrifice makes it possible and of the Holy Spirit because that’s the begettal of eternal life!
