Did the Apostles already have every doctrinal answer — or did they have to wrestle with real theological questions?

In this video, we examine the Council of Jerusalem in Acts 15, where the early Church confronted the Judaizing controversy: must Gentile converts be circumcised and follow the Mosaic Law to be Christians?

Acts tells us plainly that there was much debate among the Apostles and presbyters. This wasn’t a matter resolved by individual interpretation or competing Bible studies, but by the Church acting with divine authority, guided by the Holy Spirit:
“It seemed good to us and to the Holy Spirit…”

This clip offers a compelling biblical challenge to the idea that all doctrine was immediately settled and simply “read off” from Scripture. Instead, it shows how the Church has always discerned truth amid new historical circumstances.

A must-watch for anyone interested in Scripture, Church authority, and the development of Christian doctrine.
