Episode Details

Paul and Peter are arguing, the question at the heart of their conflict was, “do you need to follow the law of Israel if you are to share in the blessing of Israel’s messiah?” to ask it another way, do you need to be Jewish to be Christian. The Peter leaning churches said yes, the churches Paul ministered to said no. This argument reveals a stumbling block about how we follow Christ, both through our own effort but ultimately by grace.
