The Apostolic Decree | An Introduction to Torah (Acts 15:20)
Did Acts 15 give Gentile believers only four rules—or was it the beginning of something bigger? In The Apostolic Decree | Acts 15:20, we examine what the apostles required, why those four prohibitions matter, and how they function as an introduction to Torah.
This teaching walks through Acts 15 carefully and shows how the decree connects to Moses, holiness, food laws, idolatry, and sexual immorality. We also examine whether these commandments were only for the first century or still apply to believers today.
You’ll learn:
Why the four prohibitions in Acts 15:20 come directly from the Law of Moses
How Acts 15:21 points to ongoing growth in Torah observance
Why the decree was repeated later in Acts and affirmed beyond Jerusalem
How the commands against idol food, blood, strangled meat, and sexual immorality work as broader categories
Why this passage matters for Gentile followers of Yeshua today
