Good News for All

Acts 10 records a significant shift in the direction and focus of the gospel message. The gospel message up to this point had been centered on Jewish believers, then it expanded to include Samaritans as well, but in Acts 10 all walls of separation were broken down as the gospel spreads to gentiles. Up to this point the gospel had appeared to be good news for some, but in Acts 10 it is made clear that the gospel is good news for all who will believe!
