Author	Thread: Paul was the apostle of Christ
Admin	Paul was the apostle of Christ Posted : 9 Feb, 2020 04:51 PM I've seen a lot of people here talk about Paul. Some speak for him, some against him. Yes, I understand we shouldn't put Paul above God, but we also shouldn't exclude his teachings from our lives. Because, yes he may have just been a man, but he was a man that God used, just like God used Noah, and used Moses, his teachings were not just his, but also God's. God gave us the teachings through him. And because of this, if we are christians we should apply those teachings, as well as the rest of God's word to our own lives. In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. Post Reply

LittleDavid View Profile History	Paul was the apostle of Christ Posted : 9 Feb, 2020 05:24 PM EXCELLENT THREAD!!! Talk about an immovable truth!! Talk about a self-evident truth!! One might wonder how such simple axioms that are so immovable and self-evident could possibly escape certain people—but alas they do! Alas alas alas! Post Reply
LittleDavid View Profile History	Paul was the apostle of Christ Posted : 9 Feb, 2020 05:43 PM The Greek word obviously can mean “reasoning” or logic but to select the proper meaning in a terms range of meaning depends on its contextual application. That’s another simple axiom lost on certain people. Obviously in the John 1:1 context “the Word” means the 2nd Person of the Trinity, Jesus Christ. John 1:1-3 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning. 3Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made. 4In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcomea it. It would take a dedicated air-head to assume the term “Word” simply means “reasoning” in the about context!! Post Reply

I am the way,the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father except thru me. Messiah is the mediator between GOD Almighty and man as He mediates in Himself. Post Reply
LittleDavid View Profile History	Paul was the apostle of Christ Posted : 9 Feb, 2020 06:05 PM In the John 1:1-3 context, Jesus obviously is the Word of God. One can only marvel at the inherent spiritual blindness that has seized certain people. Their religious commitment is first to their man made tradition not to the Word of God Post Reply
KJVonly View Profile History	Paul was the apostle of Christ Posted : 9 Feb, 2020 06:10 PM Yeshua is called the Word because through him all things were made. Through the words of Jesus man and earth were made. The word carries the idea of active power. He is the Eternal Word that took on flesh and blood so that we could behold God's glory. Post Reply

"Obviously in the John 1:1 context “the Word” means the 2nd Person of the Trinity, Jesus Christ." Well David that's quite an anachronism! That makes your "context" about 400 years out of context. The "Trinity" doctrine wasn't formulated and accepted by the Church for another 400 years. Now how do explain your "in context" interpretation? Post Reply
