At the time when Christianity was established, \Jews viewed Gentiles as inherently unclean. This was a significant problem in the early church. Throughout Paul’s ministry, he spoke out against this stigma and preached Jesus to the Gentiles (Romans 3:22, Romans 10:12, Galatians 3:28, Colossians 3:11). But before launched his ministry, the message had already been taken to the Gentiles. And the most prominent early convert was a man named Cornelius. We explore that conversion and note that there are no second-class Christians. Faith in Christ is the great equalizer, eradicating any foundation for prejudice.
