Early Christians debated whether gentile believers needed to follow Jewish laws, like circumcision, to be part of the church. These debates led to the Council of Jerusalem, where specific cultural laws were addressed. In this sermon, R.C. Sproul distinguishes between eternal principles and cultural customs, demonstrating how the decree of the Jerusalem Council fits within the framework of the entire Bible. This sermon was preached by R.C. Sproul at Saint Andrew’s Chapel in Sanford, FL.
