1 Corinthians 7 18-1 Corinthians 7 19
Was any man called when he was already circumcised? He is not to become uncircumcised. Has anyone been called in uncircumcision? He is not to be circumcised.Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but what matters is the keeping of the commandments of God.

Acts 11:3-18
saying,“ You went to uncircumcised men and ate with them.”But Peter began and explained at length to them in an orderly sequence, saying,“ I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object coming down like a great sheet lowered by four corners from the sky; and it came to where I was,and I stared at it and was thinking about it, and I saw the four footed animals of the earth, the wild animals, the crawling creatures, and the birds of the sky.I also heard a voice saying to me,‘ Get up, Peter; kill and eat.’But I said,‘ By no means, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’But a voice from heaven answered a second time,‘ What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.’This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into the sky.And behold, at that moment three men who had been sent to me from Caesarea came up to the house where we were staying.And the Spirit told me to go with them without misgivings. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s house.And he reported to us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and saying,‘ Send some men to Joppa and have Simon, who is also called Peter, brought here;and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them just as He did upon us at the beginning.And I remembered the word of the Lord, how He used to say,‘ John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’Therefore, if God gave them the same gift as He also gave to us after believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could stand in God’s way?”When they heard this, they quieted down and glorified God, saying,“ Well then, God has also granted to the Gentiles the repentance that leads to life.”

Isaiah 56:6-7
“ Also the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord, To attend to His service and to love the name of the Lord, To be His servants, every one who keeps the Sabbath so as not to profane it, And holds firmly to My covenant;Even those I will bring to My holy mountain, And make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on My altar; For My house will be called a house of prayer for all the peoples.”
