Paul's Ministry Recognized By The Jerusalem Apostles

7 On the contrary, when they saw I had been entrusted with the gospel for the benefit of the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been for the circumcised 8 (for He who equipped Peter to be an apostle of the circumcised equipped me as well for the uncircumcised), 9 and when they recognized the grace I had been given, then the so-called 'pillars' of the church, James and Cephas and John, gave myself and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship. Our sphere was to be the Gentiles, theirs the circumcised.
