Welcome to Calvary Chapel Greenville — Sunday Morning
The Faith of Peter and Cornelius
Cornelius was a Gentile who feared God and followed many of the ways of the Jewish faith. God spoke to Cornelius and instructed him to send for Peter.
At the same time, Peter received a vision from God of animals that were considered unclean according to Jewish law. God told Peter not to call unclean what He had made clean.
The animals in Peter’s vision represented the Gentiles. God was showing Peter that the Gospel was not only for the Jews—it was also for the Gentiles.
Peter was being prepared to step outside of his traditions and share the Word of God with Cornelius and his household.
The practical application for us is that God’s Word and salvation are for everyone. We may have our own ideas about who is ready to hear the Gospel, but God sees the heart. Like Peter, we need to be willing to listen to God’s leading and take His Word to anyone He places in our path.
Thank you for joining us this Sunday morning. May God bless you as we study His Word together!
