Tuesday showers of blessings come from Galatians 2:14-16
"But when I saw that they were not being straightforward about the truth of the Gospel, I told Cephas (Peter) in front of everyone, “If you, being a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how is it that you are forcing the Gentiles to live like Jews [if they want to eat with you]?” [I went on to say]
“We are Jews by birth and not sinners from among the Gentiles; yet we know that a man is not justified by works of the Law, but through faith in CHRIST JESUS. And even we Jews have believed in CHRIST JESUS, so that we may be justified by faith in CHRIST and not by works of the Law. By observing the Law no one will ever be justified."
This Scripture teaches us to hold fast to the truth and not to be misled and get influenced away from the Gospel of GOD.
Human weakness is also exposed too here. CHRIST'S chosen Apostles compromised the Gospel. The error of Peter to compromise the truth of the Gospel is something Christians shouldn't do but rather earnestly desire to stand firm on the Word of truth.
Secondly we learn human beings err and they cannot be put on the same level with GOD.
Just my observation, there are people who have rejected GOD because they were disappointed by their highly exalted leaders whom they considered as sinless beings. Maybe what Scripture reveals here can help you and such people to understand that, it's only GOD we should highly exalt as sinless and never expects disappointments. What can help us never to reject GOD is to study the Word of GOD and ask HIM to reveal the mysteries of HIS Word to you. Amen
Blessings and Shalom
