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.

If you're a law keeper then you are being congruent with your belief.

So, you mean Paul taught obedience to the scribes and the Pharisees?

Ok, so it is faith + grace. Now take a look at some of the things Jesus said concerning salvation: > To the young rich ruler Jesus said: "Keep the commandments"; > To His disciples: "Your justice must exceed the one of the Pharisees"; "obey the scribes and the Pharisees"; "sell all you have...

Take a look here: Ephesians 2:8 - For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

Hi, Deut! From the portion of Scripture below we can see that Paul's contact with the other apostles was really extremely limited. I'm going to church now! See ya!

Good point! The gospel according to John is different from the other three -- it doesn't focus on Jesus' reinterpretation of the Law and it touches on salvation through faith. Well, it's 11 pm my time -- I have to go to bed. I'll be back tomorrow, if God grants me another day of life.

I think so! It seems that Matthew was avoiding the use of the word GOD (YHWH)because his gospel was for the Jews

Hi, Ahwatukee! Yeah, Paul said: "I wasn't taught it, but Jesus Christ revealed it to me". The thread title is intended to draw attention to the importance of Paul's letters. The earthly Jesus taught obedience to the scribes and the Pharisees, but the resurrected Jesus (through Paul) said we...

No, they just preached different messages. Jesus vs. Paul Introduction Controversy has arisen regarding Jesus versus Paul as scholars debate the different emphases and messages of Jesus and Paul.1 Jesus preached the kingdom of heaven. Paul did not. Paul preached justification by faith alone...

Yeah, you're right, the verses above sound similar, but when asked by the young rich ruler Jesus said: "Keep the commandments". Paul however said that salvation was by grace through faith. Well, it's bedtime for me. I'll be back tomorrow if God is willing.

Hi again, Deut! The New Testament prohibits all these things (worship of someone or something other than God as if it were God; murder; stealing; etc), so that we don't need to refer to the law of Moses.

Thanks, Nehemiah! The purpose of this thread is to show that Jesus and Paul didn't preach the exact same thing as most, if not all, traditional churches teach.

OK, so you confirm Jesus never told us to disregard the law of Moses.

I agree with you and I regard myself to be under the New Covenant.

Hi, Deut! In Romans 6:14 Paul wrote: "For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace ".

But the Philippines is a nice country! Thank God you were not born in North Korea!

I'm not a law-keeper, but I still haven't found a single piece of evidence -- in the Gospels -- that Jesus ever told us to stop keeping the Law. Should we rely solely on what Paul said?
