What happens when even a leading apostle drifts out of step with the gospel?In Galatians 2:11–14, Paul confronts Peter publicly because his behaviour was quietly distorting the truth of the gospel. Peter knew the gospel of grace, yet fear of people led him to withdraw from Gentile believers and rebuild a wall that Jesus had already torn down.This passage reminds us that the gospel is not only something we believe, it is something that reshapes how we live together.In this sermon we explore:
• Why Paul opposed Peter in Antioch
• How fear of people can pull us out of step with the gospel
• Why table fellowship mattered so much in the early church
• How the gospel creates a community shaped by graceThe gospel does not just save individuals. It creates a new kind of people, a people learning to walk together in step with the gospel of grace.
