- The gospel changes behavior by creating a life that is either in sync or out of sync with its truth.
- Peter's eating with Gentiles showed gospel freedom, then he withdrew when fearful visitors arrived, revealing the mismatch.

- Peter withdrew from Gentile fellowship when men from James arrived, motivated by fear of the circumcision party and loss of status.
- That moment of weakness caused the whole Jewish contingent in Antioch to follow his lead and separate from Gentiles.

- Fear, hypocrisy, and legalism are three ways Christians go out of sync with the gospel.
- Piper identifies fear first, citing 2 Timothy 1:7 to show God gives power, love, and self-control, not a spirit of fear.
