Conference of the Christian Apostles at Jerusalem AD 50, which decreed that Gentile Christians did not have to observe the Mosaic law of the Jews.

Peter the Apostle and James, the council decided the issue in favor of St. Paul and the Gentile Christians, thus helping to separate early Christianity from Judaism
