When a leader is a hypocrite... |
bradfreeman |
This wasn't Peter's first big mistake.
"Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed...he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision..even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy." Gal. 2:11-13
Even leadership can let fear get the best of them.
Fear will cause you to bow to religion if you let it.
But don't write leadership off, even when they make big mistakes. _________________ I'm not saved because I'm good. I'm saved because He's good!

One of my favorite scriptures |

Brad,
I really like this passage because, I can relate to Bro Pete. I know what it is to be hypocritical and I know what it is to be around hypocrites. In my walk with Christ, I have witnessed Him do many great things through me and then I turn around and deny Him more than 3 times. The amazing thing is, He continues to ask me to feed His sheep and because He has forgiven me so much, I continue to do my best and feed His sheep.
Upon this Rock, I will build m church. It amazes me how He uses broken people to build His church.
Humbled. |
