Acts 15:28-34

²⁸The Holy Spirit told us that you don’t need to get that young man’s operation. That’s the way we think, too. So we are telling you to just follows these rules, –

²⁹If somebody gives food to a sacred statue, don’t you eat any of that food. – And don’t eat blood. – And if somebody strangles an animal, don’t eat its meat. – And don’t sleep with people that you are not married to, as if they are they are your wives or husbands. Make sure you don’t do those things, and you will be all right. That’s our message to you now. Goodbye.”

³⁰Then Judas and Silas went to Antioch, and they called all the Christians to come to a meeting, then they gave them the letter.

³¹Those Christians read that letter and they were very happy.

³²Judas and Silas were men that told God’s messages to people, and they talked a lot to those Christians, helping them to be happy and to believe strongly in Jesus.

³³After that Judas and Silas got up to go back to the church in Jerusalem. The Antioch Christians said to them, “We are happy for you to go back, and we pray you will have a good trip.”

³⁴But Paul and Barnabas stayed there in Antioch, and they taught the people and told them the message from God about Jesus. A lot of other Christians helped them to do that.
