Bible Question: Someone on this forum has raised the question, "Was Paul always right?" And I ask, if Paul was not always right in his teaching, do we have a flawed New Testament? |
Bible Answer: Hello Hank! I believe that our conclusion lies in Psalm 12:6-7.. "The words of the LORD are pure words; As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, refined seven times. You, O LORD, will keep them; You will preserve him from this generation forever." So my conclusion is that the New Testament isn't the object that is flawed, but the one who even went so far as to ask the question, "Was Paul always right?" is most definitely flawed in their thinking; that is, if they were indeed serious. How should we take such a person seriously? I wonder.. |
