Acts 15:11-18

¹¹We're convinced that we're saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way they are.”

¹²Everyone listened attentively to Barnabas and Paul as they explained the miraculous signs that God had performed through them among the foreigners.

¹³After they had finished speaking, James spoke up, saying, “Brothers, listen to me.

¹⁴Simon has described how God first revealed his concern for the foreigners by taking from them a people committed to him.

¹⁵This is in accordance with the words of the prophets, as it's written,

¹⁶‘In the future I will return, and I will rebuild the fallen house of David; I will rebuild its ruins and set it straight.

¹⁷I will do this so that those who are left may come to the Lord, including the foreigners who call on my name.

¹⁸This is what the Lord says, who revealed these things long ago.’
