Anyone here holier than Peter ?

Jesus is YHWH said:

I will call this Paul's sevenfold rebuke of Peters hypocrisy and beak it down with scripture not my opinion.

Paul's words to Peter were as follows:

1) I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.
2)he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group.
3) The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy,
4) so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray.
5)they were not acting in line with the truth of the gospel
6)You are a Jew, yet you live like a Gentile and not like a Jew
7)you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs

You can read the story in Galatians 2.

And please don't blame me for this blame God, Paul and Peter since God included in His word and Paul confronted Peter.

BTW- if Peter an Apostle could not reach a sinless state post indwelling of the Holy Spirit what on earth makes you think you are above Peter in reaching sinlessness ?

hope this helps !!!

That incident was memorable for me because, if you read the 4 Gospels account, there is no reason why Peter should even be worried about the "men from James".

Peter was called the rock by Christ himself and he was to be the "boss" of the Jerusalem assembly.

James only got saved after Christ resurrected, out of nowhere, he became the boss of the Jerusalem assembly by Acts 15.

Peter's name was mentioned prominently in early acts, mentioned only once in Acts 15 as a kind of "glorified bystander", and then faded into background after that.
