OUR FATHER WHO SHOWS PARTIALITY TO NO MAN

The book of Galatians chapter 2 verses 6 - 10 says contains the Apostle Paulˋs recounting the acceptance that the original apostles ( James, Cephas and John) extended to him when they realized that the Lord had committed to Paul the gospel for the gentiles when they saw that the Holy Spirit, who worked so spectacularly in Peter when he was ministering to the Jews, also worked spectacularly with Paul as he ministered to the Gentiles.

As such, the original apostles accepted Paul as a peer and the only imposition that they laid on him was he include the care of the poor in his ministry and Paul was already eager to incorporate such practices. 

6 But from those who seemed to be something—whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no man—for those who seemed to be something added nothing to me. 7 But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel for the uncircumcised had been committed to me, as the gospel for the circumcised was to Peter 8 (for He who worked effectively in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised also worked effectively in me toward the Gentiles), 9 and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. 10 They desired only that we should remember the poor, the very thing which I also was eager to do. 

Amen.
