Paul has been used as an example by many Christian missionaries and preachers who were guided by the Holy Spirit. He is one of the greatest apostles the world has ever seen and I would strongly opose what you have written in this post and everywhere else on this forum.

I'll get back to you with more explanation soon as I need to attend a meeting.

Paul never misrepresented the Gospel. Rather, he was led by the Holy Spirit to make rules and ways by which missionaries can successfully spread the Gospel while sustaining their livelihood.

Paul is a person preached about by many many missionaries. These preachers pray so much that if what they teach about Paul were to be wrong, God would have corrected them. This is the first time I have ever heard of your version of the story. The Gospel has been preached right and the evidence of salvation and miracles speaks for itself. You cannot delete, add or modify anything that relates to the Word of God and this is wrong.

Jesus's death on the cross is for the redemption of our sins and IT IS BY THE GRACE OF GOD that we were given this free gift. When we recieve it, we are to follow the example of Jesus Christ's life. It takes strong faith to leave everything and follow Jesus. For those who would still work, Jesus wants them to live a clean life.

Jesus asked certain people to follow Him after He healed them. Certain others were allowed to leave home and continue earning for their livelihood. Is Jesus contradicting Himself here. No! He is a God who understands what each for us wants.

Jesus told His disciples that after Him being taken, the Holy Spirit will be sent down for our guidance and Paul spoke all this with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is through these chapters that we see the work and guidance of the Holy Spirit and hence these are true and valid. These chapters belong to the Bible and cannot be excluded.

Alasdair, you have so much false teachings on your site. Solomon is not 666. His knowledge was not from the world. It was given to him by God. According to you, 666 has written a chapter of wisdom in the Bible. This is obviously wrong. It says: Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Here is wisdom means, here is a valuable information.

My understanding of the Bible is very limited and I have only used common sense to find out how much wrong your theory is. I have heard of Jehovah witness using false theories and your ideas are certainly like some of them.

You cannot understand what it says in the Bible unless you earnestly pray and ask God for wisdom. Scholars who dont pray can interpret the Bible the way they want but someone who asks God for His guidance extracts the right information.

I can confirm that Paul is a true apostle because in real life, my dad takes his example and since my dad is a man of great faith and prayer (I see it everyday and I am not joking), he is hardly ever wrong. This is my experience and the Holy Spirit still leads preachers to talk about him. The truth is confirmed through an experience in my case and not just reading. Therefore I am not giving you an opinion but a confirmed truth.

Alasdair, As far as I have seen, he very different. He would only be very happy to see that. Infact, when God touched him, he was about to do something like that, but circumstances did not allow it.

Who are you following???? The garbage you are trying to pass off as truth was started probably before you were born. It didn't come to you by devine revelation, but from false doctrine that you have chosen to without confirming to pass on. If you are going to bear false witness you should be smart enough to do so outside of biblical proof that counterdict what you say.
The fact that "theologens" and christianity in general have used Paul's writings to justify many things that are not in accordance with following Jesus doesn't make Paul the heritic.

Paul did not advocate paying christian leadership. In fact he spoke against it and set an example of not accepting payment for services of that nature.
Paul was a tent maker. He did not accept compensaton for spreading the Gospel because doing so compromised the gospel.
Paul exaampled exactly what Jesus said for the Apostiles to do.
Mar 6:8 And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse;
Mar 6:9 But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
Mar 6:10 And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into a house, there abide till ye depart from that place.


Paul was a Pharisee before the Damascus road. Paul had wealth and prominence. Paul gave up all his eartly possessions, position and promance to go about spreading the gospel of Christ.
How dare you set all nice and cozy at home at and judge another as not following Jesus.

I'm sure you could find someone that could use your computer to spread the word rather than attack it.
How about you do that and show by your absence that you follow Jesus.

Mat 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
Mat 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
Mat 7:3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Mat 7:4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
Mat 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

This discussion has not achieved anything but strife and the theory about Paul being a False Apostle is wrong and unBiblical. No one can add, delete or modify anything from the Word of God. This topic will only furthur confuse members so I am forced to close this thread.
