Acts 15:8-11

8God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us.

9He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith.

10Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear?

11No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”
