from the article on your link…
“The Council of Jerusalem simply gave its approval to a decision already made by Peter”, however, in Acts 15, 13-19, "When they finished, James spoke up: “Brothers, listen to me. 14Simon[a] has described to us how God at first showed his concern by taking from the Gentiles a people for himself. 15The words of the prophets are in agreement with this, as it is written:
16” ‘After this I will return
and rebuild David’s fallen tent.
Its ruins I will rebuild,
and I will restore it,
17that the remnant of men may seek the Lord,
and all the Gentiles who bear my name,
says the Lord, who does these things’**
18that have been known for ages.[c]
Code:
19"It is my judgment, therefore,..."
Therefore the person making the proclamation is James, not Peter. Paul and Barnabas also testify to their work among the Gentiles, not just Peter. He is not shown in any position of authority in this passage. Therefore, Scripture seems to contradict what is stated in the article, which I assume is the Catholic position. I will believe the Scripture over man-made invention, thanks.**
While Torah is silent on the details it is loud on telling Israel that they should judge for itself how to implement the commandments. Moses delegated, there was a time we had Judges, Sannhedrin etc.
Here You Coach- How to keep Shabbat is Man-Made
As if that is a novel concept? Of course the way Jews observe Shabbat is a product of the people. That’s exactly how it was intended to be.
Shalom
And Where is it recorded in the TORAH - Moses delegated his authority to the Sannhedrin ? Nowhere I know
While Bible is silent on the details it is loud on telling Catholics that they should judge for itself how to implement the Christs Teaching. Jesus delegated, there was a time we had Apostles, Churches etc.
Matthew 16 18 And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Many Catholics have heard that “kepha” is used in both places in this verse ("You are Peter [kepha] and on this rock [kepha] I will build my Church . . . "),
So here 'tis:
