When Peter came to Antioch, I had to oppose him to his face - Galatians 2:11
Uncorrected errors do multiply, you got to face them some day
Few of us enjoy confrontation:
Spiritual health sometimes calls for loving confrontations
Petter had erred in refusing to dine with uncircumcised Gentiles Christians
Peter was clearly in the wrong and Paul confronted him directly
Paul modeled the importance of lving confrontation with regard to crucial issues of faith
If he let this error slide, bigger errors would soon bury the young church
