Galatians 4:16) so yes to the ultra con I am a sort of Frenemy.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth (
Romans 1:16)
Did not Paul rebuked Pater for going along with the Pharisees that were in the church, out of fear?
Peter did not believe the Pharisees ideas, but out of fear he was going along.
Paul was not going to be quiet out of a sense of keeping the peace and getting along, he fought those who wanted to add extra rules to the salvation of the believers and I am quite sure he would fight the modern Pharisees of today who want to add extra rules of salvation to the believers.
Paul would have none of that nonsense. he withstood the Pharisees in the church and for that he was reviled. so go ahead and revile me, I am in good company with Paul.
