God Only Knows -- Banda de Boca

Welcome to Christian Chat, David, and thanks for your useful input. I perfectly agree that faith without actions is no real faith at all. I also agree that all Scripture is God-breathed and therefore faultless. Many Christians, however, have doubts about the authority of Paul and tend to...

Do you keep the whole Law (all 613 Mitzvot)?

Nativity Medley - Committed

I don't attempt to act like the earthly Christ, I attempt to obey the risen Christ who spoke to us through Paul.

No, I'm not a law keeper. I just agreed with Deade that the Law is holy.

You're right! The Law is holly! And the author of Hebrews said: "Without holiness no one will see God".

Biologically God is neither male nor female, but the Bible teaches us to refer to Him as father. However: Female Anglican clerics want to refer to God as 'She' ByMark A. Kellner@Mark_Kellner Published: June 5, 2015 6:30 am God's gender is coming under scrutiny as newly ordained female bishops...

You answered your own question here..? Marcelo said: °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° My personal answer, more precisely, would be: "Yes, we should rely solely on what Paul said". If...

I am not pitting Jesus against Paul. The purpose of this thread is to examine the DIFFERENCES between the teachings of Jesus before the cross and the teachings of Jesus after the cross (who spoke to us through the apostle Paul).

Welcome to Christian Chat, Beckworth! No, I am not a red-letter Christian; I believe Paul was Jesus' spokesman. There are no CONTRADICTIONS, but there a DIFFERENCES between the teachings of the earthly Jesus and the risen Jesus (Paul's words). Most theologians say Jesus and Paul preached the...

Read the text again: 23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” 25 When the...

Do you obey the scribes and the Pharisees as the earthly Jesus commanded? Have you already given away your property as the earthly Jesus commanded? Do you offer sacrifices as the earthly Jesus commanded? Do you keep the Sabbath as the earthly Jesus taught us through His example? Do you keep...

I gave you a LIKE because you're helping me prove my point -- you gave two opposite examples of how Bible readers interpret Mt 19:24. Some readers interpret it correctly (impossible or at least almost surely impossible) and others follow "theologians" who are always trying to explain away why...

I do believe the Bible is flawless, but many Christians are not so sure about it. I'll give you an example: Jesus said it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Paul, however, said that he knew how to live in want or in plenty...

Nice contribution to my study! Almost certainly Jesus was hinting at the New Covenant.

Almost three decades ago a friend of mine set out to give away his material assets because "that was a commandment from Jesus". He gave away almost everything he had and started living off his friends. He quit his job as an airline pilot because Jesus had nowhere to lay His head and he wanted to...

This is what most traditional denominations (mine included) teach: "there is no conflict between Jesus and Paul". Well, Paul was a mere spokesman, so it's better to say "differences between Jesus BC and Jesus AC" (before the cross and after the cross)and we have to admit that there are...

Yes, the Law is an all-or-nothing thing, but all law-keepers that I know of keep only part of the law of Moses.

Check out the vid below. Pastor David points out and explains some differences between Jesus and Paul. He is a bit aggressive (calls others "hypocrites"), but provides us with useful information. NOTE: Sorry, in post #286 I posted the wrong video.
