Our Goal
To reflect on our own
understanding of the gospel.
Allow God’s Spirit to spark a
spiritual revival in our hearts as we rediscover what God has done for
us in Christ.
Ang Ating Mithiin. Upang pag-isipan ang sarili nating pagkaunawa sa ebanghelyo. ¶ Pahintulutan ang Espiritu ng Diyos na pasiklabin ang isang espirituwal na ribaybal sa ating puso habang tinutuklas natin muli ang ginawa ng Diyos para sa atin kay Cristo.

7. The Unity of the Gospel
Key Text
Philippians 2:2 ESV
Complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.”
Susing Talata. “Lubusin ninyo ang aking tuwa sa pagkakaroon ng gayunding pag-iisip, magtaglay ng gayunding pag-ibig, na magkaisa ng diwa, at may isa lamang pag-iisip” (Filipos 2:2).

8. The Unity of the Gospel
Initial Words
In Galatians 2:1–14, we find the apostle doing all in his power to maintain the unity of the apostolic circle in the midst of attempts by some believers to destroy it.
But as important as that unity was to Paul, he refused to allow the truth of the gospel to be compromised in order to achieve it.
Panimulang Salita. Sa Galacia 2:1-14 ay masusumpungan ang apostol na ginagawa ang lahat nang makakaya upang mapanatili ang pagkakaisa ng kapisanan ng mga apostol sa gitna ng mga pagtatangka ng ibang mananampalataya na sirain ito. ¶ Subalit gaano man kahalaga ang pagkakaisang ito kay Pablo, hindi niya pinahintulutang maikompromiso ang katotohanan ng ebanghelyo para lang matamo ito.

10. The Unity of the Gospel
1. The Importance of Unity
1 Corinthians 1:10 NKJV
Now I plead to you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions
among you,
but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.”
1. Ang Kahalagahan ng Pagkakaisa. “Mga kapatid, ngayon ay nananawagan ako sa inyo sa pamamagitan ng pangalan ng ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo, na kayong lahat ay magsalita ng isang bagay lamang, at huwag magkaroon sa inyo ng mga pagkakabaha-bahagi, ¶ kundi kayo’y magkaisa sa isang pag-iisip at layunin lamang” (1 Corinto 1:10).

11. 1. The Importance of Unity
Paul and the Apostles
The false teachers in Galatia claimed that Paul’s gospel was not in harmony with what Peter and the other apostles taught. Paul, they were saying, was a renegade.
In response to this charge, Paul recounts a trip he made to Jerusalem at least fourteen years after his conversion.
Si Pablo at ang mga Apostol. Sinasabi ng mga maling tagapagturo sa Galacia na ang ebanghelyo ni Pablo ay hindi kaayon sa itinuturo ni Pedro at ibang mga apostol. Sinasabi nilang si Pablo ay isang taksil. ¶ Bilang tugon sa paratang na ito ay ikinuwento ni Pablo ang paglalakbay niya sa Jerusalem mga 14 na taon matapos ang kanyang pagbabalik-loob.

12. attack on the church itself
1. The Importance of Unity
Paul and the Apostles
The accusation that his message was different was not only an attack on Paul but also an attack on the unity of the apostles, and on the church itself.
attack on the
church itself
Maintaining apostolic unity was vital, since a division between Paul’s Gentile mission and the mother church in Jerusalem would have had disastrous consequences.
Ang paratang na ang kanyang mensahe ay naiiba ay di lang isang atake kay Pablo kundi atake rin sa pagkakaisa ng mga apostol, at sa iglesya mismo. ¶ Mahalaga ang pagpapanatili ng pagkakaisa ng mga apostol, dahil sa ang pagkakahati sa pagitan ng misyon sa Hentil ni Pablo at ang inang iglesya sa Jerusalem ay magkakaron ng nakapipinsalang bunga.

1. The Importance of Unity
Paul and the Apostles
With no fellowship between the Gentile and Jewish Christians, then
“Christ would be divided, and all the energy which Paul had devoted, and hoped to devote, to the evangelizing of the Gentile world would be frustrated.”—F F Bruce The Epistle to the Galatians 111.
Kung walang samahan sa pagitan ng mga Kristiyanong Hentil at Judio, ay ¶ “hati si Cristo, at ang lahat ng kalakasang ibinigay ni Pablo, at inaasahang ibibigay pa sa pangangaral sa daigdig ng mga Hentil ay mabibigo”—F F Bruce The Epistle to the Galatians 111.

14. ancient epigram: circumcised men do not descend into gehenna [hell].
1. The Importance of Unity
Circumcision Issue
What Paul objected to was the insistence that Gentiles had to submit to circumcision.
The false teachers said: “ ‘Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved’ ”(Acts 15:1, NKJV).
The issue, then, was not really about circumcision but about salvation.
ancient epigram: circumcised men do not descend into gehenna [hell].
Ang Isyu ng Pagtutuli. Ang inaayawan ni Pablo ay ang pamimilit na dapat magpatuli ang mga Hentil. ¶ Sinabi ng mga maling tagapagturo: “ ‘Maliban na kayo’y tuliin ayon sa kaugalian ni Moises, hindi kayo maliligtas’ ” (Gawa 15:1). [see ancient epigrams (kasabihan)] ¶ Ang isyu, kung gayon, ay hindi talaga tungkol sa pagtutuli kundi tungkol sa kaligtasan.

15. that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.”
The Unity of the Gospel
2. Unity in Diversity
Galatians 2:9 NKJV
When James, Cephas, and John…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.”
2. Pagkakaisa sa Pagkakaiba. “Nang malaman nila Santiago, Cefas, at Juan ang biyayang sa akin ay ipinagkaloob ay ibinigay sa akin at kay Bernabe ang kanang kamay ng pakikisama, ¶ upang kami ay pumunta sa mga Hentil at sila’y sa mga tuli” (Galacia 2:9).

16. 2. Unity in Diversity
Same Gospel
The apostles acknowledged that God had called Paul to preach the gospel to the Gentiles, just as He had called Peter to preach to the Jews.
In both cases, the gospel was the same, but the way it was presented depended on the people the apostles were trying to reach.
Katulad na Ebanghelyo. Kinilala ng mga apostol na tinawag ng Diyos si Pablo upang ipangaral ang ebanghelyo sa mga Hentil, gaya nang tinawag Niya si Pedro upang mangaral sa mga Judio. ¶ Sa dalawang pagkakataon ay magkatulad ang ebanghelyo, bagaman ang paraan ng paghahayag nito ay nakadepende sa mga taong sinisikap na abutin ng mga apostol.

17. 2. Unity in Diversity
Same Gospel
Implicit in this verse “is the important recognition that one and the same formula is bound to be heard differently and to have different force in different social and cultural contexts…. It is precisely this oneness which is the basis of Christian unity, precisely as unity in diversity.”—James D G Dunn The Epistle to the Galatians 106.
Ang ipinapahiwatig sa talatang ito “ay ang mahalagang pagkilala na ang iisa at katulad na pormula ay maaaring magkaibang maririnig at magkaron ng ibang bisa sa iba’t ibang kontekstong sosyal at kultural.... Talagang itong pagiging isa ang basehan ng pagkakaisang Kristiyano, talagang gaya ng pagkakaisa sa pagkakaiba.”—James D G Dunn The Epistle to the Galatians 106.

3. Hypocrisy Destroys Unity
Galatians 2:11-13 NLT
But when Peter came to Antioch, I had to oppose him publicly…. When he first arrived, he ate with the Gentile Christians…. But afterward, when some Jewish friends of James came, Peter wouldn’t eat with the Gentiles anymore because he was
3. Sinisira ng Pagkukunwari ang Pagkakaisa. “Ngunit nang dumating si Pedro sa Antioquia, ay sumalungat ako sa kanya nang mukhaan.... Nang una siyang dumating ay nakisalo siya sa mga Kristiyanong Hentil. Pero pagkatapos, nang ang ibang kaibigang Judio ni Santiago ay dumating, ay ayaw na ni Pedro na makisalo sa mga Hentil dahil siya’y

afraid of what these legalists would say.
Then the other Jewish Christians followed Peter’s hypocrisy, and even Barnabas was influenced to join them in their hypocrisy.”
natakot sa sasabihin ng mga legalistang ito. ¶ Pagkatapos ang ibang mga Kristiyanong Judio ay sinundan ang pagkukunwari ni Pedro, at kahit si Bernabe ay naimpluwensyahang sumama sa kanila sa kanilang pagkukunwari” (Galacia 2:11-13 NLT).

20. 3. Hypocrisy Destroys Unity
Confrontation in Antioch
The issue was about table fellowship with Gentiles. Because many Jews saw Gentiles as unclean, it was a practice among some to avoid social contact with Gentiles as much as possible.
Although Peter knew better, he was so afraid of offending his own countrymen that he reverted to his old ways.
Paghaharap sa Antioquia. Ang isyu ay tungkol sa pagkaing kasama ang mga Hentil. Dahil maraming Judio ang itinuturing na marumi ang mga Hentil, kaugalian ng ilan na iwasang makitungo sa mga Hentil hanggat maaari. ¶ Bagaman dapat ay mas nakakaalam ng tama si Pedro, natakot siya ng gayon na lang na mapagalit ang kanyang mga kababayan kaya bumalik siya sa kanyang dating gawi.

21. Why is it so easy to be a hypocrite?
3. Hypocrisy Destroys Unity
Confrontation in Antioch
Paul called Peter’s actions exactly what they were: the Greek word he used in Galatians 2:13 is hypocrisy.
Even Barnabas, he said, was “carried away with their hypocrisy” (NKJV).
Why is it so easy to be a hypocrite?
Isn’t it, perhaps, that we tend to blind ourselves to our own faults while looking for faults in others?
hypocrisy
Tinawag ni Pablo ang kinilos ni Pedro sa tamang kalagayan ng mga ito: ang salitang Griyego na ginamit sa Galacia 2:13 ay pagkukunwari. ¶ Kahit si Bernabe, sinabi niya, ay “natangay sa kanilang pagkukunwari.” ¶ Bakit napakadaling maging isang hipokrito? ¶ Hindi kaya marahil, ay nakahilig tayo na bulagin ang sarili sa ating mga kamalian samantalang naghahanap ng mga kamalian ng iba?

22. Peter’s actions, in a real sense, compromised the whole message
3. Hypocrisy Destroys Unity
Paul’s Concern
The issue was “the truth of the gospel.” That is, it wasn’t just an issue of fellowship or dining practices.
Peter’s actions, in a real sense, compromised the whole message
of the gospel.
Ang Pasanin ni Pablo. Ang isyu ay “ang katotohanan ng ebanghelyo.” Ibig sabihin ay di lang ito isyu ng pagsasama-sama o kaugalian sa pagkain. ¶ Ang mga kilos ni Pedro, sa tunay na kahulugan, ay ikinumpromiso ang buong mensahe ng ebanghelyo.

23. 3. Hypocrisy Destroys Unity
Paul’s Concern
From Paul’s perspective, Peter’s behavior implied that the Gentile Christians were second-rate believers at best,
and he believed that Peter’s actions would place strong pressure upon the Gentiles to conform if they wanted to experience full fellowship.
Mula sa pananaw ni Pablo, ang inugali ni Pedro ay nagpahiwatig na ang pinakamabuti ng mga Kristiyanong Hentil ay maging segunda-klaseng mananampalataya, ¶ at naniwala siyang ang mga kilos ni Pedro ay maglalagay ng matinding pamimilit sa mga Hentil na umayon kung gusto nilang makaranas ng lubos na kapatiran.

24. The Unity of the Gospel
Final Words
The more responsibilities placed upon the human agent, the higher his position to dictate and control,
the more mischief he is sure to do in perverting minds and hearts if he does not carefully follow the way of the Lord.”—EGW The SDA Bible Commentary 6:1108.
Huling Pananalita. “Mas marami ang responsibilidad na ibinigay sa taong kinatawan, mas mataas ang kanyang katayuang magdikta at kumontrol, ¶ mas marami ang kalokohan na tiyak niyang gagawin sa pagpapasama ng mga isipan at puso kung hindi niya buong ingat na susundin ang daan ng Panginoon.”—EGW The SDA Bible Commentary 6:1108.
