Acts 15:25-29

²⁵it seemed good to us, having become of one mind, to choose men and send them to you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

²⁶men who have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

²⁷We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who will themselves tell you the same things by word of mouth.

²⁸For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us, to lay upon you no further burden except these necessary things:

²⁹to abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which if ye keep yourselves, ye will do well. Farewell.”
