First Question (Peter's Vision)
Peter's vision (Acts 10) was about the unclean animals being made clean, symbolizing that Gentiles (non - Jews) were now included in God's plan of salvation. Option b aligns with the idea that God saves all who believe, and the vision was about the inclusivity of God's salvation (not just for Jews, and the animal imagery was a symbol for people groups). Option a is incorrect as the vision was about inclusion, not exclusion of animals' cleansing in a negative way. Option c is wrong as the vision wasn't about animal sacrifices' sufficiency. Option d is also incorrect as the vision's main point was about inclusivity of people, not the insufficiency of animal sacrifices.
When Peter saw that the Gentiles (Cornelius and his group) received the Holy Spirit, he was acknowledging that they should be baptized since they believed. Option b states that even Gentiles have a right to be baptized if they believe in the Lord, which matches the context. Option a is wrong as the event showed Gentiles could be baptized. Option c is too general (every can be baptized, but the context was about Gentiles who believed, not just anyone). Option d is about belief, but the focus was on baptism eligibility, not just belief.
