Your blind reading is quite amazing!

They were to go to the synagogue every Sabbath day to learn Torah.

Paul and Peter were quite capable of teaching the Way of Yeshua Ha Massiach (that you mistakenly call by the pagan term “christ”) but their quandry was how much of Torah they needed to personally teach. The council produced a sensible approach in their deliberations.

Its unfortunate that they didn’t foresee the rise of Pagan Nicean and pre-trib apostasy, or they could have added additional teaching to avoid the damage those vile ideas produce.

Pre-tribbers spin like dervishes!

The supernatural endurance required to “endure unto the end” is not in us, but in Jesus, who paid the full price for our eternal souls: “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Eph. 2:8-9).

Preach all you want on your works based salvation but it is not the gospel preached by the apostles and is thus “another gospel”.

Seriously? The Holy Spirit who inspired them what to write couldn’t see the future?
