Acts 15:7-9

7 And after there had been much 1debate, Peter stood up and said to them, "Brothers, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, 2that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear 3the word of 4the gospel and believe.
8 And God, 5who knows the heart, 6bore witness to them, 7by giving them the Holy Spirit just as he did to us,
9 and 8he made no distinction between us and them, 9having cleansed their hearts 10by faith.
