Abstract

This research aims to discuss Paul and Peter’s debate as the Gospel of Deliverance’s reality from Christ. It is studied theologically from Galatians 2: 11-21. The research method is carried out using the library research method to become a new discourse to answer the discussed problems. Paul and Peter’s arguments reveal that humans are saved because of faith in Jesus Christ, not because of practising circumcision and the Law.  It has been mandated in the Jerusalem council that the gospel is the only thing that guarantees that Gentiles get liberation and freedom, even counting for Abraham’s blessing without living by proselytes. The outcome of this debate was news of joy in particular to the Gentiles who became the subject of heated discussion at that time, which led to a deeper understanding of the work of Christ’s deliverance.
