It deeply offends me that someone would make a caricature of my God ordained physical features, particularly, one who serves in a high profile position. I respect your right and reasoning not to be offended. But, I’m as offended as Paul was observing Peter’s racial hypocrisy.https://twitter.com/D_B_Harrison/status/1056193461009948678 …

Absolutely disagree. I read a refutation of your position earlier this week, I believe by someone from TGC. Don’t remember author’s name,but he was specifically responding to ur point of view and cited several scholars& commentators who support the view that ethnicity was the iss

If you would take the time to listen to the other side, my brother, you would know that 1) that author was walking back his own claims, and 2) both his original position AND that article were addressed by me on the Dividing Line.

Circumcision that marked them as Jews, thus it had a racial component.

But now that Christ has come was it necessary for Gentile believers to be circumcised and come under Mosaic law in order to be saved. IT WAS A GOSPEL ISSUE.
-
And racial reconciliation is a gospel issue: Ephesians 2:11-22
-
Biblical reconciliation is a gospel issue: the modern definition of that term that includes with it all the political baggage of Western culture is a completely different concept. Biblical reconciliation is a completed reality. One body, one Savior. Period.

Great, now let's work toward this completed reality with real action. Let's look out for the interests of others, especially in regards to the deep racial divisions that exist in the church. There are a lot of "completed realities" we still need to strive for.
-
As I have emphasized for a while now: it makes all the difference in the world if we START with the reality that there is no barbarian, no Scythian, or if we pretend we are still supposed to be working TOWARD that. Very different methodologies will result.

The early church couldn't even get passed Greek Jewish Christians and Hebrew Jewish Christians. They acknowledged prejudices and worked thru. That doesn't address my original issue, the Judaizers and Paul were in a dispute over whether Gentiles needed to become Jews to be saved.

That’s interesting because a heard a fantastic message from
@VoddieBaucham today that used the verses on circumcision in Ephesians 2 to talk about racial disharmony. -
Can you post the link please?

I saw him in person. I don’t think it’s online yet.

Paul saw the racial and cultural issue as a Gospel issue. So yes Peter was compromising the Gospel itself. It was a matter of race and circumcision. To confuse that is tragic but not necessarily a "fatal error."

If you think "gentile" is a race, then you don't know what a race is!
-
It's as much a race as "white" or "black."

...sounds like solid logic to me. Paul hates division in the church, so let's imagine a corporate sin, blame a group with different skin pigmentation, and single them out as sinners for that reason. Because powerstructures... No thread of cultural Marxism in that thinking. None.
-
Is this what it's like to be ignorant of the development of Marxist secular thought into critical race theory into whatever pseudo biblical label we are trying to slap onto this distinctly secular philosophy?
