Oh. so God told Peter (in a vision), Peter doesn't do it, Peter decides the vision is about the cleansing of gentiles, he witnesses the holy spirit pouring out on gentiles, he baptizes the gentiles, he tells all the other converts that gentiles have been cleansed and GOD NEVER CORRECTS THE MISTAKE? He just let it go on and on for a couple of thousand years now, pouring his Holy spirit out on gentiles because Peter didn't get it right? Please. :-)
Nope, he got it right, and he tells us exactly what the vision meant and I'm not going to add anything to it:
Act 11:1 Now the apostles and the brethren who were throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
Act 11:2 And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those who were circumcised took issue with him,
Act 11:3 saying, "You went to uncircumcised men and ate with them."
Act 11:4 But Peter began speaking and proceeded to explain to them in orderly sequence, saying,
Act 11:5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object coming down like a great sheet lowered by four corners from the sky; and it came right down to me,
Act 11:6 and when I had fixed my gaze on it and was observing it I saw the four-footed animals of the earth and the wild beasts and the crawling creatures and the birds of the air.
Act 11:7 "I also heard a voice saying to me, 'Get up, Peter; kill and eat.'
Act 11:8 "But I said, 'By no means, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered my mouth.'
Act 11:9 "But a voice from heaven answered a second time, 'What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.' Act 11:10 "This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into the sky.
Act 11:11 "And behold, at that moment three men appeared at the house in which we were staying, having been sent to me from Caesarea.
Act 11:12 "The Spirit told me to go with them without misgivings. These six brethren also went with me and we entered the man's house.
Act 11:13 "And he reported to us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and saying, 'Send to Joppa and have Simon, who is also called Peter, brought here; Act 11:14 and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.'
Act 11:15 "And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them just as He did upon us at the beginning.
Act 11:16 "And I remembered the word of the Lord, how He used to say, 'John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'
Act 11:17 "Therefore if God gave to them the same gift as He gave to us also after believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could stand in God's way?"
Act 11:18 When they heard this, they quieted down and glorified God, saying, "Well then, God has granted to the Gentiles also the repentance that leads to life.
