Did you know that Jesus warned you from Paul?

Question

Read Matthew 5:17-18-19
Jesus in these three verses is telling you the fact that HE CAME NOT TO DESTROY THE OLD COMMANDMENTS, but to fulfil them, meaning they are supposed to be still observed and then he warns from people who will be teaching people not to observe the commandments! who other than Paul has taught people to STOP OBSERVING THE COMMANDMENTS, since doing rightous deeds according to his personal view is NOTHING!! don't you agree?

Answer 1

Saul of Tarsus (Paul) is the original anti-Christ.

If one chooses to believe that sort of thing.

The majority of the New Testament was "written" by Paul, so that's an excellent source for factual information about the anti-Christ (Paul).

Paul never met Jesus, did not witness any of the events, was never baptized and never became a "Christian."

Yes, he's an excellent source for information about what Jesus "really said or meant if he didn't actually say it."

Answer 2

You are almost right.

Jesus did not destroy the commandements that were given to Moses, so they are still in effect today and will continue until the new heaven and new earth. (See Mat. 5:17, 18)

Paul did not teach that we should stop observing the commandments. "For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law." (Rom 13:9-10) In this passage, Paul is affirming that we still need to keep the last 5 commandments, and in verse 10, he paraphrases the whole thing with the word love. (If you love someone, you would not want to harm them in any way.)

Paul also kept the 4th commandment. In a few places, he stated that he preached in the Jewish synagogues on the Sabbath (saturday) to the Jews and gentiles.

In Romans 3 and 6, Paul asked if it was OK to continue sinning so that we could have more grace or faith, and he answered his own question "God forbid" (NO WAY).

All 10 commandments are still valid today, and Paul supported them.

Answer 3

No, I don't agree.
Paul warns us to think that obeying the law is the means by which one can earn their salvation. Nobody is sinless, so nobody deserves to go to heaven.
However, Paul tells us to obey the law and be righteous many, many times. Here is just one example:
Romans 2:12-13 "All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous."

So, Paul is telling us to obey the law. Paul does not think that doing righteous deeds is "nothing;" far from it. Paul NEVER tells anyone to STOP observing the law, only that salvation requires God, not simply works. He only confirms what Christ has already told us.

Answer 4

Jesus and Paul did not live at the same time. Paul saw Jesus in visions and Jesus talked to Paul about Paul's behavior. Paul wrote his epistles by himself under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Paul was very concerned about the various groups of Christians he visited in Ephesus,Corinth, Galatia,etc. As a result, sometimes Paul was very strict with them so they would remain faithful. He also,however; loved the Christians like a father. I think we all need to be warned sometimes. Think of warning a three year old not to run in the street alone.

Answer 5

Yes and no.

Paul was saying that having your salvation rely solely upon the observance of the ten commandments and doing good deeds was death - because it couldn't be done. Ephesians 2:8-9

Yes, we're supposed to try to keep them but our salvation is based, in it's entirety, on the Grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ.

Answer 6

The warning is in regard to falsehoods ... people will do this or that, believeing it is something to God's liking but won't be.

Selfish prayers for "gifts" amounting to less than what is sacred, is praying in vain. Thus, useing the Lords Name in vain. (Spititual Vanity)

Teaching the path to Christ for profit ... puts the entire congregation at risk.

Calling upon the Holy Spirit to perform heelings and blessings for profit or by trickery, is unforgiveable.

Keep searching my friend, you will find the truth ...

Answer 7

Paul was the messenger of god to the gentiles. an early controversy arose on whether the gentile converts must be circumcised and follow the Mosaic laws. after a meeting in Jerusalem it was agreed (by consensus) that the judaizing of new converts was unnecessary and in fact counterproductive as it fostered a false legalism and was counter to Paul's doctrine of Justification by Faith.
Paul was converted by Christ himself (acts 26) to carry his message. to say that Paul was against Christ is wrong and a grave error. keep on studying, its comforting to think that a Muslim is trying to understand instead of accepting the hate filled and impious judgments of radicals and extremists.

Answer 8

okay if you are muslim why do you worry yourself with what christians think about the scriptures of the Bible? Would not we be victims of our own ignorance? We are not justified through the law any longer but through the blood of Jesus Christ. Since you are so worried about thet law then follow it yourself and have a sinful heart. That is the death of hell just as he called out the Pharasees.

Answer 9

Matthew was a written a minimum of decades after Paul's writings. Why do you accept older writings as higher fidelity than earlier writings?

Answer 10

Everyone read the bible for yourself before you let people put trash into you head don't let anyone take your faith away from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Read the whole bible..
