1 | Paul our pattern to follow, not Jesus? | 2 Tim 3:16 | lionheart | 169588 | ||
Bereaniam, Notice that Paul says to follow him as he follows Christ. We all need godly example and that is what I believe Paul is speaking to here. Paul's central focus is always Jesus Christ. Paul makes frequent reference to the Old testament,Thus Romans 15:4. Hopefully this gets us a little closer and I'm understanding your question better. In Christ, lionheart |

2 | Paul our pattern to follow, not Jesus? | 2 Tim 3:16 | Bereaniam | 169598 | ||
lionheart, You are getting closer...because everything you just posted , I put in my first post. I just wanted to know if you believe the Gentiles (post resurrection of Jesus) had enough scriptures from Paul's epistles to get saved and live a fulfilled Christian life. I am sure the early Christian Gentiles did not have access to ALL of the scriptures as we do today. Would you live your Christian life differently if you only read Romans - Hebrews? Most Christians today comingle the scriptures and try to live under the old covenant and the new covenant. In Him and He in me |

3 | Paul our pattern to follow, not Jesus? | 2 Tim 3:16 | lionheart | 169602 | ||
Bereaniam, I think the light just went on. In light of 2 Peter 1:3 they did have what they needed.You are correct they absolutely didnt have the advantages we do today. That would come with time.That's why Romans 15:4. Until the Gospels and the rest of the new testament had been penned much reference to Messianic prophecy and what Jesus did was made from the Old Testament,this is what was already available in writting so that people would have some actual seeable evidence. Hopefully we're getting closer to a defineable answer. In Christ, lionheart |

Bereaniam, Keep that heart to be a 2 Timothy 2:15 diciple, you will gp far with it.People can be slow to set aside sentimentality and wrong teaching.It took me the better part of 43 years to finally get it straight.Seek out like minded believers and individuals who are commited to God and His Word,Keep comming back you'll find em here too. In Christ, lionheart |
