Judaizers had begun teaching the Galatians church that they must be circumcised to be saved.

That would mean that the Law was greater than the Gospel of Jesus.

Meaning that the price Jesus paid for our freedom was not enough.

ALL WAS WELL, UNTIL....

14.

Peter acted like a Gentile with the Gentiles.

When the Jews showed up Peter distanced himself from the Gentiles.

Paul did not agree....

Paul openly corrected Peter.

Paul put forward arguments that were compelling.

While now resolution was given in this portion, later interactions between the two Apostles show they were on good terms.

Know-go to your friend with fact not opinion.
Grow-make sure you are confronting your friend in love. Grow in love.
Go-go to your friend carefully, it's more important to have your friend than be right.
