Home > Apostolic Council

The Apostolic Council of ca. 48 CE settled the issue of whether non- Jewish Christians had to follow Jewish traditions. This came out of a debate between the apostles Paul and Peter. It was decided that gentile Christians did not have to keep the Mosaic law, but that they should still refraim from idolatry, fornication, things strangled, and blood.

The Apostolic Council is recounted in the Biblical New Testament book of Acts, chapter 15.
