Preacher:
Service Type:

 2And I went up by
revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to
them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.  3But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was
compelled to be circumcised:  4And that
because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have
in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:  5To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the
truth of the gospel might continue with you.  6But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it
maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man’s person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference
added nothing to me:  7But contrariwise,
when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the
circumcision was unto Peter;  8(For he
that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me
toward the Gentiles:)  9And when James,
Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me
and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the
circumcision.  10Only they would that we
should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.  11But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face,
because he was to be blamed.  12For before
that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and
separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.  13And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that
Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.  14But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth
of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of
Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews? (Galatians
2:2-14, King James
Version)
