How did the church reach unit on the question of gospel to the Gentiles?

Peter explained how the Holy Spirit went into the Gentiles so that everyone understood that God’s salvation is for the Gentiles as well as the Jews.
Gospel spread to Antioch and a great number of Gentiles believed and turned to the Lord. Barnabas co-worked with Paul for a year, taught and brought up a great number of disciples.
Led by an Angel, Peter escaped from prison miraculously.
James executed, Peter imprisoned, Herod eaten by worms as he did not give glory to God.

Identity - Herod executed James and imprisoned Peter to please the Jews. Am I doing anything to please people but against God’s will? Pray and ask God to help me to put Him first.
Fidelity - Barnabas, filled with Holy Spirit, was quite reputable in Jerusalem’s church. However, he was not arrogant but valued Paul’s gifts and invited him to co-work together. Am I humble when I serve? Do I value my co-workers’ gifts and repect their strengths?
