Dangerous Talk

Acts 21:21-24

They have been informed that you teach all the Jews who live among the Gentiles to turn away from Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or live according to our customs. What shall we do? They will certainly hear that you have come, so do what we tell you. There are four men with us who have made a vow. Take these men, join in their purification rites and pay their expenses, so that they can have their heads shaved. Then everyone will know there is no truth in these reports about you, but that you yourself are living in obedience to the law. (NIVUK)

When Paul and his team arrived in Jerusalem, they described in great detail what God had done among the Gentiles during the missionary journeys (Acts 21:17-19). After hearing that, the elders in Jerusalem reported how thousands of traditionally devout Jews had also believed in Jesus (Acts 21:20). However, there was a problem. The jealous and defensive religious leaders had been spreading false rumours about Paul's teaching, saying that Paul had forbidden Jewish believers to continue with their traditional rituals.
