Why did saul or pauls teachings clash with James the Just brother of Yeshua/Jesus ?

Question

please be accurate, would not James teachings be the same as YeshuaJesus

Gospels Thomas, verse 12 The disciples said to Jesus, "We know that you are going to leave us, Who will be our leader? Jesus sais to them, "No matter where you are you are to go to James the Just, for whose sake heaven and earth came into being." This sounds like Jesus had complete confidence in James

Answer 1

Paul was getting no where fast getting converts in Tarsus.

The people there were mostly Mithra's followers. The believed that blood sacrifices washed away sins.

Paul blended this idea into his ever changing version of Christianity. Only he supercharged it with the blood of Jesus (son of God) washes away the sins of the world. Prior to this it had no part in christian teachings. Jesus never said anything about it. It worked like a charm. Paul had a deluge of converts because He gave them something that they could relate to.

This success was not overlooked by Constantine and his gang. They were trying to maneuver themselves into the control seat of the christian faith. They adopted Paul's version of Christianity and the idea of God/Jesus dying for your sins. It was very effective because of the guilt it induced. They also took another hint from Paul's book of tricks and came up with a very similar version of Paul's conversion for Constantine. He too had a vision where the christian Figure head came to him and converted him.

The rest is history. After the council of Nicaea all competing scripture was ordered destroyed and all true versions of the teachings of Jesus were labeled heresy.

All we were left with was the nonsense called the bible.

Answer 2

There is no clash between the teachings of Paul and James, save in the minds of some who misunderstand the focus of one or the other.
The "usual suspect" is their respective teachings on justification. Paul points out that we are justified before God based on faith in what Messiah has done - not on what we do. James points out that we are justified before men by allowing what we are on the inside to show through on the outside. No clash - no contradiction - just two sides of the same coin.

Answer 3

dispensationally speaking, yes Paul's teachings are different compared James. In the epistle of James, he addresses his epistles to the "12 tribes which are scattered abroad" for Israel alone. (James 1:1). Whereas Paul's ministry on his 7 epistles after Acts Period are addressed "to the Gentiles" (Eph. 3:1, Col. 1:27). Please compare scripture with scripture.. (spiritual things with spiritual).

The two authors of the scriptures are inspired by the Holy spirit but both have different subjects, different addressee.

Php. 1:10 so that ye may approve the things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and void of offence unto the day of Christ;

(in the margin, to test things that differ)

Answer 4

Three things to remember-
1. The don't really clash-you just misinterpret them,
2. Paul was talking to Christians who were never under the law. James was talking to Jews who were still under the law or who were converted and still thought they were.
3. James is talking about faith and deeds-not salvation.

while you're pertaining to the verses interior the e book of Corinthians, i are in a place to offer you some suggestions. The church of Corinth grow to be a clean church in Paul's time, and grow to be a suffering church at that. many of the church's contributors have been created from converts. those converts had a habit in attempting to combine their previous ideals with their new ones; alongside with many different issues right it rather is a itemizing of issues that have been happening interior the church until eventually Paul got here and set issues without postpone. one million) there have been divisions, character cults, and cliques. 2) Carnality outweighed spirituality. 3) Sexual perversion, fornication, incest, and adultery have been in many situations practiced and familiar. 4) delight, worldliness, and materialism reigned interior. 5) Church contributors have been taking one yet another to court docket. 6) there grow to be revolt against apostolic authority. 7) there grow to be a failure to self-discipline contributors had fallen into sin. 8) Marital conflict and mis- be responsive to-how regarding people who have been single have been glaring. 9) there have been abuses of liberty. 10) there have been abuses of God's meant roles for husbands and better halves. eleven) They have been failing to suited be conscious the Lord's Supper. 12) it rather is no longer hard to be responsive to the way there is additionally extreme perversion of the non secular presents. thirteen) there have been additionally heresies with regard to the resurrection maximum of it rather is often cutting-edge in almost any learn bible that includes a historic history of the scriptures. be conscious: in case you have the different questions with regard to the bible, please state them for that reason.

Answer 6

i think this has always been an issue for NT scholars. it seems that Paul was more "second generation" - he was never personally with Jesus. his writings are reflective of that one degree of separation. Paul also seemed to have a different charge - his task was to organize and encourage the churches more than any other NT writer. perhaps that plays a part, too.

one thing that is important to remember about Paul is that he wrote to specific churches with instructions for that church. to take what Paul wrote and apply it to every church may, in the long run, be mis-interpretation of scripture. just a thought

Answer 7

Could you please give the teaching in question. I do not know of any 'clash' in doctrine between James and Paul, but would like to see your concerns.

Answer 8

Paul hijacked a Jewish sect that formed around Jesus and reshaped it more toward his thinking. Paul apparently knew little of Jesus' own teachings--for example, Jesus taught righteous behavior (Sermon on the Mount) whereas Paul disavowed works (justification by faith alone). Jesus never claimed to be God or even good, where Paul makes him the object of faith. Christianity is the creation of Paul and has little to do with the teachings of Jesus.

Answer 9

You are assuming that the "James" who wrote the General Epistle of James is somebody besides: "James a servant (slave) of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ..."

Since that is all we know for sure of the "author of James" - - then it seems to me that your premise is faulty at least...and presumptuous beyond words at the worst.

Answer 10

Proof, people- where is the proof?
