Subject: Paul our pattern to follow, not Jesus? |
Bible Note: Hi Mark, I am soooo sorry...evidently I did not communicate my view very well. I certainly did not mean Jesus was two different people. God, Jesus, Holy Spirit is the same yesterday, today and forever...but their means of dealing with humanity are VERY different during the different dispensations. If you are a Gentile, Jesus was not sent to you as He walked on this earth as Jesus of Nazareth,Mat15:24, Mat 10:5, Mat 6:31,32, Jhn4:9). Jesus kept the law, all 613, wore tassels, was circumcised, tithed, agreed w/stoning disobedient children, etc. That's the Jesus I meant we do not follow. IICor 5:16 says though we have known Jesus after the flesh ,as Jesus of Nazareth, henceforth know we Him NO MORE!!! Heb. 8:6 says NOW he (Jesus) obtained a more excellent ministry....a mediator of a BETTER covenant...established on BETTER promises. God will always be omnipotent, all loving, omnipresent, omniscience, etc., etc..., but He does not deal with mankind today who has received His divinity in their humanity the way He dealt with Adam, Noah,Abraham,Moses, the prophets, etc. I noticed you did not address the fact that Paul says over and over in his epistles that he is our pattern to follow...which is what my question was...should we as Gentiles govern our daily Christian walk by the epistles Paul wrote (Romans through Hebrews? Read Rm 2:16 and 16:25,1Tim1:16, 2Tim 2:8 1Cor4:15,16, Act9:15,Gal 1:11, Ep3:2, Rm11:13, Act 22:21 and 26:16, there R others. Yes Jesus came to show us the Father... Our Father's attributes do not change, BUT His program and how He deals with us sure does change (read Heb 7:12). In Him and He in me |
