You've hopefully seen my "Falsely Accused: Paul" comic. This comic is taking what most people are falsely accusing him of today, and applying it to his visit to James in Acts.
In this account, there are rumors going around of Paul that he is teaching people to not do the Law of Moses, even to not circumcise their children. What does James say? He says he knows it is not true and for Paul to go along with some men to do the Nazarite vow to show he does indeed follow the Law still so everyone can see that these rumors aren't true.
We can't read the Bible in a bubble. We can't go and read Paul's letters and say "see, here he is teaching against the Law", when we have accounts like this one that the very topic of Paul teaching against the Law is found to be false.
Because if he was indeed teaching against the Law, I do believe this comic is how it would have played out. It might have even had some more serious consequences like those at the start of Acts 5. Then we would not even have his letters in our Bibles.

Incline your ear and listen to the words of the wise, and apply your heart to my knowledge.
Proverbs 22:17 TLV
Be intentional about learning wisdom. You can learn just from being in the presence of the wise, but you will gain true wisdom by studying them and their words, by memorizing, emulating, and conforming your thinking to theirs.

Father, thank You for sanctifying me with the Truth; Your Word is Truth! Yeshua, You consecrated Yourself for my sake, therefore, I will be Truth-consecrated in my mission. In the Name of Yeshua, I repent and turn from my wicked ways. I wash myself and make myself clean. I cease to do evil and I am learning to do right. Father, You dwell in me and walk with me, therefore, I leave the corruption and compromise for good. You are my Father and I will not link with things that pollute me because I know I am Yours alone. I purify myself from everything that will contaminate my body, spirit and soul, perfecting holiness out of reverence for YHVH. Father, I confess all of my sins and I know You are Faithful and Just to forgive me, and cleanse me from head to toe from all unrighteousness. Father, You, Yeshua and the Holy Spirit are one and You are my Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification and Redemption. I reiterate myself again that I submit my body, spirit and soul to You, my King Most High. I strip myself from of my old, unrenewed self and put on the new nature, changing whatever needs to be changed in my life. The desire of my heart is to be a vessel unto Your honour, sanctified, fitting for my King’s use and prepared for every good work. I ask that You fill my tongue with Your Word and my Lips with Your praise and worship. I thank You Adonai my YHVH in the Name of Yeshua my Saviour, amein
