Meeting of Peter and Cornelius

29 minutes

1 November 2024

You heard the meeting between Peter and Cornelius. Peter was a Jew and Cornelius was a Gentile. Before the two met, it was necessary for Peter to see a vision from God so that he would know that in God's eyes both Jew and Gentile are clean. As Jesus Christ said: There is nothing that can enter a person from the outside and make him impure. What makes a person impure is the things that come out of him. Understanding this teaching of Jesus Christ, Peter meets Cornelius and explains the good news of salvation of Jesus Christ to him. After witnessing God's remarkable work in the life of Cornelius, his family and friends, Peter sees no reason why they should not be baptised.
