Acts 11:1-18
1. Why was Peter criticised?
Peter was criticised by the circumcised believers for going into the house of uncircumcised men and ate with them.
2. What was his defense?
Peter explains that the voice had spoke from heaven, 'Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.' Then he remembered what the Lord had said: 'John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.' So if God gave them the same gift as he gave us, who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was Peter to think that he could oppose God?"
When the circumcised believers heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, "So then, God has granted even the Gentiles repentance unto life."
