In Acts chapter 15, we see how the early Christian congregation faced a critical decision regarding the role of the Mosaic Law for Gentile believers. The apostles and elders demonstrated faith and courage by seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit and making a collective decision that promoted unity, rather than division. This shows us the importance of prayerful consideration and cooperation when facing challenges in our own lives. Just as the governing body of that time made decisions that aligned with God’s purpose, we too can look to this example as we strive to make choices that reflect our faith and commitment to Jehovah. It reminds us to prioritize unity and spiritual guidance in our decisions today.
. How may we benefit from examining the account in Acts chapter 15?It will take real faith and courage to accept the spirit’s guidance in this case. They risk intensifying the hatred of the Jewish religious leaders. And they face resistance from men within the congregation who are determined to lead God’s people back to reliance on the Mosaic Law. What will the governing body do? Let us see. In the process, we will see how those men set a pattern that is followed by the Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses today. It is a pattern that we too need to follow as we face decisions and challenges in our life as Christians.
