The example you live before others either confirms what you profess to believe, or it contradicts what you profess to believe. Ladies, if you profess to love your husband, but often speak with bitter, sarcastic, or demeaning words against him, you might find it difficult to convince others that you really do love him. Men, if you make your wife feel like a fool in front of others by your words and actions, you will probably find it difficult to convince your children that you really love their mother. For love is not only professed but also practiced as well. We are not only to profess our love in word, but to live it out daily in our actions. In our text this Lord's Day, there is a classic illustration in the life of Peter of one who contradicts by his actions what he professes to believe. Let us consider the following main points from our text in Galatians 2:11- 14: (1) Peter Contradicts His Profession Publicly, and (2) Paul Rebukes Peter Publicly.
