Acts 15:7 in Context — Acts 15
5 Alors quelques-uns du parti des pharisiens, qui avaient cru, se levèrent, en disant qu’il fallait circoncire les païens et exiger l’observation de la loi de Moïse.
6 Les apôtres et les anciens se réunirent pour examiner cette affaire.
7 Une grande discussion s’étant engagée, Pierre se leva, et leur dit: Hommes frères, vous savez que dès longtemps Dieu a fait un choix parmi vous, afin que, par ma bouche, les païens entendissent la parole de l’Évangile et qu’ils crussent.
8 Et Dieu, qui connaît les cœurs, leur a rendu témoignage, en leur donnant le Saint-Esprit comme à nous;
9 il n’a fait aucune différence entre nous et eux, ayant purifié leurs cœurs par la foi.
