What do we learn from the story of Cornelius?

Asked 3 years ago

If Cornelius was a gentile who converted to Christianity, what moral does this story teach us?

Christians can learn a lot from the story of Peter and Cornelius. Firstly, we understand that following God often takes humility. Cornelius revered the Jewish people and also the Christians, despite his Roman background. Most Romans would’ve sneered at anyone who didn’t have Roman citizenship. But Cornelius shows true humility and reverence. Secondly, we learn not to make quick judgments about people. Thirdly, this story shows the importance of preaching the Gospel to unreached people. We may often think of third-world nations when we hear this, but most likely, we have people in our own backyards who haven’t had Gospel exposure
