Week Four: Jesus Thought Of You

Welcome to Week Four in our series on the book of Galatians! As we have seen week in and week out, this letter was written to a group of churches that were being tempted to give in to a false gospel and to walk away from the true gospel. The story picks up when Paul confronts Peter and Barnabus, who begin to let fear drive them and their theology right to hypocrisy and sin, even after learning from Jesus and teaching others about Him. So what can we learn from this confrontation between Peter and Paul? Today, Christians disagree on lots of things as they study the bible and read the history of the church. Most of the time these discussions are in shades of grey instead of anything in black and white. But there are 3 times when this type of confrontation (Peter vs Paul) is needed: when you change the gospel, change the essentials of the faith and when you say sin is no longer sin! As we listen in to learn more from Pastor Jon regarding this text, we continue to pray that the Holy Spirit would enlighten the truth of Scripture, strengthen us to hear and obey and keep the truth of the gospel at the centre of our lives.
