You don't know what versions I have so that was a stupid thing to say. And shame on you for accepting a 13th Apostle violating the sacred number 12. Shame on you for lacking the necessary astuteness to spot a false prophet
Matt7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

Well you do follow a false prophet in Saul the Pharisee and you don't honor Jesus by doing that, it's more a statement of fact than a judgement
1Cor 11:1 ¶ Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

There is a running theme in this narrative to the effect that the gospel gives us liberty and a return to the Law takes it away again.
Was not the purpose of the false brethren to “spy out our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus”?
They wanted to “bring us into bondage” (v4), but Paul did not “yield submission” (v5), and he rebuked Peter for wanting to compel the Gentiles to live like Jews (v14).
This freedom from slavery is one of the benefits of the gospel, part of the “good news”, and that is why the integrity of the gospel must not be compromised.
