"For there is no respect of persons with God." Rom. 2:11 The NT does not suborn your false assumption.
This is what I was thinking of, for example:
Acts 15:23-31:
[SUP]"23 [/SUP]And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia.
[SUP]24 [/SUP]Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:
[SUP]25 [/SUP]It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
[SUP]26 [/SUP]Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
[SUP]27 [/SUP]We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.
[SUP]28 [/SUP]For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
[SUP]29 [/SUP]That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
[SUP]30 [/SUP]So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:
[SUP]31 [/SUP]Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation."
