I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet whereinsoever any is bold( I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.Are they ministers of Christ?( I speak as one beside himself) I more; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths oft.

Acts 15:6-29
And the apostles and the elders were gathered together to consider of this matter.And when there had been much questioning, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Brethren, ye know that a good while ago God made choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.And God, who knoweth the heart, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit, even as he did unto us;and he made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.Now therefore why make ye trial of God, that ye should put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?But we believe that we shall be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in like manner as they.And all the multitude kept silence; and they hearkened unto Barnabas and Paul rehearsing what signs and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles through them.And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Brethren, hearken unto me:Symeon hath rehearsed how first God visited the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,After these things I will return, And I will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen; And I will build again the ruins thereof, And I will set it up:That the residue of men may seek after the Lord, And all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called,Saith the Lord, who maketh these things known from of old.Wherefore my judgment is, that we trouble not them that from among the Gentiles turn to God;but that we write unto them, that they abstain from the pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from what is strangled, and from blood.For Moses from generations of old hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath.Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men out of their company, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:and they wrote thus by them, The apostles and the elders, brethren, unto the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, greeting:Forasmuch as we have heard that certain who went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls; to whom we gave no commandment;it seemed good unto us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves also shall tell you the same things by word of mouth.For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:that ye abstain from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which if ye keep yourselves, it shall be well with you. Fare ye well.

Mark 6:17-20
For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife; for he had married her.For John said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother’s wife.And Herodias set herself against him, and desired to kill him; and she could not;for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. And when he heard him, he was much perplexed; and he heard him gladly.

Job 32:17-22
I also will answer my part, I also will show mine opinion.For I am full of words; The spirit within me constraineth me.Behold, my breast is as wine which hath no vent; Like new wine- skins it is ready to burst.I will speak, that I may be refreshed; I will open my lips and answer.Let me not, I pray you, respect any man’s person; Neither will I give flattering titles unto any man.For I know not to give flattering titles; Else would my Maker soon take me away.

Galatians 2:9-14
and when they perceived the grace that was given unto me, James and Cephas and John, they who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision;only they would that we should remember the poor; which very thing I was also zealous to do.But when Cephas came to Antioch, I resisted him to the face, because he stood condemned.For before that certain came from James, he ate with the Gentiles; but when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing them that were of the circumcision.And the rest of the Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that even Barnabas was carried away with their dissimulation.But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Cephas before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest as do the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, how compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
