Excellent and accurate presentation. Shalom

Great video brother! I've encountered this argument myself with folks who use Acts 15 to try and support lawlessness. Usually they'll quote 19 and 20 and just leave 21 out entirely, which is an indicator that they're used to reading cherry picked verses rather than the book in it's full context

Shalom! Let me know if this video made sense!

Thanks for the video 😊

To be a jew you followed the laws of Moses and the Jewish doctrines. Circumcision was a foreshadowing of a blood Covenant until the true blood letting of Jesus, ONCE for all and now Circumcision is of the heart ♥ by faith in his obedience unto even death on a cross.

Masterful brother....... Another trinity debunker verse..... 1 John 4:12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

I wish everyone would understand that the law was given to Moses from the Almighty. How can it be of Moses?

Shalom Brother. I definitely agree that the Jerusalem Council cannot be used as evidence the Torah (law of Moses) was done away with. However for various reasons I do not believe we are required to be circumcised. At around 4:29 ‘you said when they are spiritually mature enough they shall be circumcised’, is this based upon Acts 15:21 or are there other verses that lead you to that understanding? I will also watch the video you recommended.

Brother John, which translation are you reading from in this video?

Good day. Can I contact you privately?

This doesn't fit the context. Circumcision, the sabbath, and kosher foods were crucial elements of the law. Are you saying these were of secondary importance to Gentile converts as compared to eating blood, things strangled, things sacrificed to idols, and fornication. Were they being allowed to sin in the important areas while learning lesser important things. Israel was not given such a "break in" period when the law was given, but were strictly instructed to keep the whole law or suffer a curse. Also, Paul later says that things offered to idol should not be of concern to Christians.
