If Galatians 2:11 ff happened on Twitter...

Paul: I opposed Peter to his face because he stood condemned...even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy...I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel...
John Mark replied, “Nobody encourages other believers and has personally invested more in me than Barnabas. I can vouch for his deep love for God and concern for the gospel.”
The other 10 Apostles quickly tweeted out: “We count it an honor and joy to have Peter serve with us as Apostles and hold him in the highest regard for his leadership and bold testimony to the resurrection in the face of persecution.”
“Barnabas has always been soft on the truth and too much of a people pleaser. I knew he’d eventually run from the fight.”

Psalm 18:34 (AV)
Slop E. Agape: “Jesus said Iove for another, not doctrinal purity, would prove we are His disciples.”
Cornelius chimed in: “God used Peter to bring the gospel to me. I don’t understand how anybody could think that he would ever be anything less than ‘straighforward about the truth of the gospel’?”
Imov Christ: “Paul, did you approach Peter and Barnabas privately first about this like Jesus taught us to do?”
Toe Kwoukwi: “Did, you privately approach Paul before tweeting that?”
“Well, is anyone really surprised by Peter? He changes with whatever crowd has the power and whenever he needs to climb another wrung up the ladder. I’ll post an expose of his past hypocrisy in an hour.” Dee Merit
“Paul is drawing lines too tightly and acting like a fundamentalist. Barnabas and Peter love Jesus and Paul is wrong to judge them.” Angel De Luz
“Paul is just trying to lord his self-proclaimed authority over everyone else.” Jude E. Izer
“I am not sure Paul understands the importance of these Jewish brothers not burning their bridges with their kinsman by adopting his contextualized approach to Gentile mission.” Cam L. Methhead
“Before Paul comes down too hard on these Jewish brothers, he needs to remember how much suffering, shame, and oppression they have faced from the Gentiles and should ask for some kind of restitution be made.” Sid Justice
“Was Paul right or wrong to do this? Were Peter and Barnabas wrong to withdraw from table fellowship with the Gentiles? Did their actions contradict the gospel?” Ernest N. Choirer
