AskFOI: How Did Jews and Gentiles Understand the Gospel in the 1st Century?

In the book of Acts, we see the apostles proclaiming the gospel to very different audiences: the Jewish people, who were well versed in the Old Testament, and Gentiles, who had no training in God’s law. Did these groups understand the message of Jesus Christ differently? How did their backgrounds shape their appreciation of the Good News? We’re excited to explore this often-missed aspect of how 1st-century Jews and Gentiles reacted to the saving grace of the gospel.
