Acts 16:4-5

And In order that peace might be secured among the brethren in these parts, and no unnecessary burden might be imposed upon the Gentile converts, through the arts of any Judaizing teachers; as Paul and his companions went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep Committed to the custody of each church an exact and attested copy of the decrees, made by the council at Jerusalem. See Acts 15:29: for, although these decrees were written in the form of a letter to the brethren of the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia, they belonged equally to all the Gentile converts everywhere. And so were the churches established, &c. The several churches where they came, being watered by such faithful labourers, and encouraged with so favourable a decision of the grand point then in question, were much confirmed in their adherence to the Christian faith; and increased more and more in number daily For the burdensome yoke of the law of Moses being now broken, a great obstacle to the conversion of the Gentiles was removed.
