Answer 1

F YOU buddy!!! You need help BADLY. We dont say Jesus was wrong at all you RETAR D! and he was not a COMMUNIST! look up the word you f***ER

Answer 2

apparently this is the meating of the know nothings. Jesus and paul do not disagree, don't much care what your site says. Read the book. Paul is after Jesus, Talked mouth to mouth with Jesus in the 3rd heaven (all in the Bible do your own leg work). The rules changed after the Cross, any body who understands the least bit about the Bible can figure that out. Step two is necessarily a little different than step one.
Yes Jesus was a communist who practised what He preached. You have aproblem with that then check out what communism really is (not what Russia practiced) and consider what communism would be like if all were rightly practicing christians, not selfish pigs. Check out your sources regarding what communism is are they not produeced by greedy capitalists. You gonna believe the wolf at the door when He says he just here to talk.

OK checked the site and I understand your point and yeah Paul is more applicable today and communism is the christian's optimum system.

Answer 3

Jesus is not wrong neither is paul wrong.The truth is the teaching of Jesus was based on the fulfillment of the old law which sustained the people until the new law takes effect whish is after the death of jesus.He became the sacrificial lamb since the blood of animal can not give us the spiritually relationship which the creator wanted when He created Adam. Paul's teaching is based on making known the benefits of Jesus death to the us. Paul's teaching is like reading the will of a dead man to discover the inheritance you have suddenly come into by reason of the person's death. pauls teaching also encourages us to have faith in Jesus christ teaching and also on the fact thet Jesus is with the father God mediating for us like the Old testament Levitan Priest used to do before He now shed his own blood

Answer 4

I don't know any Christians who are saying that and there is little validity to the references you cite since they are opinions expressed in answer to questions you asked and interpreted... therefore, biased.

For an unbiased answer to the question of whether or not Jesus said anything different than Moses or Paul said anything opposed to Jesus' teachings, I refer you to the truly scholarly study of the subject by John MacArthur who wrote, "The Gospel According to the Apostles", and "The Gospel According to Jesus," both of which can be found through Amazon.

Answer 5

You are over-generalizing and taking things way out of context. There are also scriptures that oppose several of those you posit... The truth is somewhere between those extremes.

For instance on "purse" - effectively the disciples carrying money:

Lk 22:35 Then Jesus asked the disciples, “Did you need anything when I sent you without a purse, bag or sandals?” “Nothing,” they answered.
Lk 22:36 He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it. And also take a bag. If you don’t have a sword, sell your coat and buy one.

... as you can see, these are CONSECUTIVE VERSES. There was a clear change described.

Answer 6

Your intended direction and misled conception for your question is clearly to satisfy your own brain - if you ever have the opportunity to see the hanging gardens, Babylon, the GofE or Abrahams grave, I know Iraq will welcome you with open arms and give you a tour of the Tigres and Euphrates. The summer sun will help develop your thoughts and bring you to a level of conscieousness not yet experienced. If you don't like the reality you face go speak your opinions to the Iraqi people where they still stone people. Maybe you ought to thank God for the freedoms you have and not worry about shooting off your opinions in hopes to get a warm and fuzzy for your decisions in life. LIVE WITH IT!!=))

Answer 7

I think Paul is distorted the message of Jesus. Unfortunately Paul was a better politician and trounced his opposition. It really should be called Paulism, not Christianity. I find it especially appaling how Paul's message about "faith" eventaully made it possible to more or less trump charity and justice.

Answer 8

Few Christians view the Gospels through the light of the Epistles. This is wrong.

We are to view the Epistles through the light of the Gospels.

Answer 9

I think most of Jesus' message was changed and misinterpreted. The 4 gospels are the result of the most popular interpretation of his message. Then we have paul (saul of tarsus) having his interpretations put into the bible with his letters to the early christian communities. It's preposterous.

Answer 10

Jesus was a prophet, Paul was not, all Paul's life he opposed Jesus, thus Jesus is the real McCoy, not paul
