>> The Jews (Hebrews) of the time of the Gospels and Acts fully understood what belief and faith meant.<<

Did they have dietary rules? Did they need to be circumcised? Could they eat with Gentiles? Was there a universal change from that after the council at Jerusalem? If there was, which there was, was that a “different gospel then being preached prior to that council?

No where in Acts is any of that preached as part of salvation. No where in Acts 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and on. The Jerusalem council was to correct an error (Judaizers). Peter never preached that error.
