Did those saints assembled in Jerusalem and hearing Peter's report, recognize the fulfillment of prophecy that day? Were their hearts filled with praise at the realization that the promise to Abram had been honored?
Do we, the grafted in ones, remember our Jewish brethren and thank them for their faithful service as the children of the Lord, the ones called to be the blessing to all families of the earth?
