Acts 15:9-11
GOD’S WORD Translation
9 God doesn’t discriminate between Jewish and non-Jewish people. He has cleansed non-Jewish people through faith as he has cleansed us Jews. 10 So why are you testing God? You’re putting a burden on the disciples, a burden neither our ancestors nor we can carry. 11 We certainly believe that the Lord Jesus saves us the same way that he saves them—through his kindness.” [a]

Acts 15:9-11
New International Version
9 He did not discriminate between us and them,(A) for he purified their hearts by faith.(B) 10 Now then, why do you try to test God(C) by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke(D) that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace(E) of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”
