This is the fifth in a sermon series based on 1 Corinthians 13’s treatise on love and titled, “Love, Always.” In today’s reading from Galatians, Paul links love and truth, but we know that truth is often difficult to discern. In Galatians Paul writes about the truth of the gospel, saying that we are all one and criticizing Peter for refusing to sit with the Gentiles, which thus rebuilds walls that Jesus had torn down. It was a moment of confrontation between the two, and we don’t know how or whether their relationship continued from there, but it was an example of Paul’s attempt to re-focus Peter on the basic message of Jesus, founded in love.
