Galatians 2:11-14
But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face because he stood condemned.For he regularly ate with the Gentiles before certain men came from James. However, when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, because he feared those from the circumcision party.Then the rest of the Jews joined his hypocrisy, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.But when I saw that they were deviating from the truth of the gospel, I told Cephas in front of everyone,“ If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel Gentiles to live like Jews?”

The city wall had 12 foundations, and the 12 names of the Lamb’s 12 apostles were on the foundations.The one who spoke with me had a gold measuring rod to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.The city is laid out in a square; its length and width are the same. He measured the city with the rod at 12,000 stadia. Its length, width, and height are equal.Then he measured its wall, 144 cubits according to human measurement, which the angel used.The building material of its wall was jasper, and the city was pure gold like clear glass.The foundations of the city wall were adorned with every kind of precious stone: the first foundation jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.

Based on the gift each one has received, use it to serve others, as good managers of the varied grace of God.If anyone speaks, it should be as one who speaks God’s words; if anyone serves, it should be from the strength God provides, so that God may be glorified through Jesus Christ in everything. To Him belong the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.

Acts 15:22-30
Then the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, decided to select men who were among them and to send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas: Judas, called Barsabbas, and Silas, both leading men among the brothers.They wrote this letter to be delivered by them: From the apostles and the elders, your brothers, To the brothers among the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings.Because we have heard that some without our authorization went out from us and troubled you with their words and unsettled your hearts,we have unanimously decided to select men and send them to you along with our dearly loved Barnabas and Paul,who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, who will personally report the same things by word of mouth.For it was the Holy Spirit’s decision— and ours— to put no greater burden on you than these necessary things:that you abstain from food offered to idols, from blood, from eating anything that has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. You will do well if you keep yourselves from these things. Farewell.Then, being sent off, they went down to Antioch, and after gathering the assembly, they delivered the letter.
