In Galatians 2:1-14, Paul continued his personal story about his interaction with the leaders in Jerusalem, relating that they completely supported his message and ministry. He recounted these events in detail in order to defend the gospel and protect the unity of the church. It is still true today that we can maintain unity amidst great cultural diversity only if we hold on to the one and only gospel.
Paul faced false accusations, a physical beating, a near flogging, and an unfair hearing, through which he took courage in the presence of Christ...
God fulfills his plan against human opposition and even through human suffering.
Paul continued to praise God for the benefits believers receive because of the sacrifice of the Son.
