Acts 15:9 meaning and explanation
He made no distinction between us and them, for He cleansed their hearts by faith.
Acts 15:9, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Peter, speaking at the Jerusalem council, reminds the gathered apostles and elders that God gave the Holy Spirit to uncircumcised Gentiles just as He had to Jewish believers. The Greek word for "distinction" (diakrisis) means a separating judgment, and Peter says God made none, because He cleansed hearts by faith rather than by circumcision or law-keeping.
