The important turning point in Acts is Cornelius ' redemption, combined with the two following meetings in regards to the redemption of Gentiles (Acts 10:1-11:18; 15:1-29). After this, the church becomes mostly Gentile with Paul 's missions to the Gentile world, as well as the rejection of the gospel by many the Jews dwelling in Palestine and through the Diaspora (Acts 13-28).…
