Acts 10:35
Next Verse

But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

Note 1 at Acts 10:35: Peter now understood that the Gentiles were completely accepted by God into His family through belief in Jesus and not through becoming a proselyte to Judiasm. Since God had accepted them, Peter accepted Cornelius and his kinsmen and even ate with them (Gal. 2:12). But when men were sent from James at the Jerusalem church, to obtain a first hand report (Gal. 2:12), Peter and the six men which were with him (Acts 11:12) withdrew from Cornelius and separated themselves for fear of what the Jews might think. Peter could not claim ignorance when Paul rebuked him in Galatians 2:11-14. Peter was the first apostle to receive the revelation that the Gentiles could be saved.
