II. From The Commentaries On This Passage

From Reformed Expository Commentary by Derek Thomas - What emerged at the Jerusalem Council? The answer to that question seems to be very clear: a commitment to the salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. It is a commitment to the fundamentals of the gospel. And just as the church of the New Testament found it necessary to build on this bedrock, so must the church in our time be equally committed. Against every sign of a gospel-plus mentality, the church must insist on maintaining a clear voice in defense of the purity of the gospel message. - p. 419
