adherence gentile christians torah laws intended gentiles

the 3 exceptions resolved council of acts 15 indicate apostles accepted portions of law of moses (the torah) intended gentiles (later known laws of noah) apply gentile christians. extra-biblical evidence shows that, @ least in areas (especially in east), included observances beyond 3 exceptions, such christianized form of passover, day of atonement, , sabbath. other gentile christian communities (especially in west), evolved in increasingly anti-jewish direction interpreted paul s teaching mean torah laws redundant salvation faith available through jesus atoning death . latter point of view, practice associated judaism came seen rejection of god s salvific gift, prohibition of blood listed among 3 exceptions in acts 15 (though prohibition of blood rejected in western church , not until middle ages). while acts 15 gives example of new believers subject when entering house of god, verse 21 states gentiles learn ways of moses in way has been done. prohibitions against fornication , idolatry still observed christian denominations although these appear in jewish law. see antinomianism , marcionism , law of christ.

this behavior particularly persecuted 1300 1800 during spanish , portuguese inquisitions, using basis many references in pauline epistles regarding law curse , futility of relying on law attaining salvation, known legalism. thus, in spite of paul s agreement @ council of jerusalem, gentile christianity came understand torah laws (with exception of ten commandments , natural law) anathema, not gentile christians christians of jewish extraction. under spanish inquisition, penalty converted jew judaizing death burning.
