PETER’S ABOUT FACE

If then God gave them the same gift that he gave us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could hinder God?" (Acts 11:17)

PETER’S ABOUT FACE

It was Peter who first argued eloquently: "The good news
        is for Gentiles who are seekers, just as much as for the Jews!"
When he spoke to the apostles, he did not back down at all,
        and his argument before them sounded very much like Paul.
When we hear him speaking in a situation of this kind,
        we can hardly now imagine he would ever change his mind.
But from Paul we learn that Peter did a total about face,
        and the former Pharisee had to put Peter in his place.
