And then God sends Peter to a house of Gentiles (Jewish prostilites):
Acts 11:14 Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved.
Then in Acts 15 (read the whole chapter) the 12 Apostles agree with Paul (and Barnabs) that God has sent Paul to the Gentiles with the message of Salvation and they (the 12) were to go to the house of Israel (Jews):
Acts 15:11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
Following Paul and his ministry to the Gentiles the way of being saved for eternal life is made very clear:
Romans 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, in as much as I am the apostle of the Gentiles…
Romans 5:9-10 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
Romans 9:27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Even though Paul was the apostle of the Gentile, he never forgot his Jewish brethren and their need of salvation:
Romans 2:10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
Romans 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
Romans 10:12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
Romans 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
And after salvation, our service (works) for God will mean something (read all of 1 Corinthians 3:9-15):
3:15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
Ephesians 2:8-10 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
REMEMBER saved people do not become sinless… they just sin less…
