Do you hate conflict? Is it awkward to be in a room where tensions rise? It is difficult to witness times of conflict between others. Conflict can make you extremely uncomfortable.
In chapter one of Galatians, there was peace, unity and love. Here in chapter two, we see Paul addressing a serious conflict that he had with Peter. Peter showed up in the city of Antioch, and when he does, Paul opposes him to his face. These two men were apostles, directly appointed by Jesus Himself. Something massive was at stake here. Peter’s behavior contradicted what he believed. He had let fear control his actions.
A Christian is in great danger when his actions are in conflict with his faith.
