Little Country Church on the edge of town

Do do do do do do

People coming every day from miles around

For meetings and for Sunday school

And it's very plain to see

It's not the way it used to be.

Welcome to the Word for today, featuring the Bible teaching ministry of Pastor Chuck Smith, founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a chapter-by-ch chapter verse by verse study through the entire Bible.

And on today's edition of the Word for today, Pastor Chuck continues his message,

Life in Antioch, as we pick up in Acts chapter 11, verse 18.

And now with today's study, here's Pastor Chuck.

When they heard these things, they held their peace and they glorified God saying,

then God also to the Gentiles has granted repentance unto life.

And they accepted the work of God among the Gentiles.

Now, they weren't really ready to enter into full fellowship with the Gentiles.

As we move along into the book of Acts, we will find that Peter went down to Anniak,

and he was eating with the Gentiles until certain brethren from Jerusalem came down.

And then Peter separated himself because of the feelings that they had still of eating with Gentiles.

And it caused a division in the Church of Antioch for which Paul rebuked him.

Paul refers to that in the book of Galatians.

So the walls are tumbling, though.

They're not completely down, not by a long shot.
