What does God say in the Old Testament about the difference between Jews and Gentiles?
God says in the Old Testament that there is a difference between Jews and Gentiles, a distinction not to be forgotten. Paul later emphasizes that in the church age there is now no difference, but the Old Testament foundation still affirms that God made a distinction.
Les explains that Peter went right back to the old mentality that Jews could not fellowship with Gentiles. But that is the beauty of the church: in the church age, Paul especially emphasizes that there is now no difference. Yet it all has to be brought back to the Old Testament, where God says there is a difference, and we should not forget that.
