The Most Violated Commandments of the Lord?

[crossnote]

Jesus sais call no man rabbi, yet Christ set teachers in the Church.
That’s for the op to figure out.
Unless he is calling Paul a false Apostle.
But then James mentioned not many are to be teachers...he didn't say 'not all'.

 

[Galahad]

Mr. Taylor, the Truth don't always suit us the way want. So away with your weak knotted threads and your piney crooked needles.

 

[resurrection33]

Notice our Lord's commandments from Matthew 23:8-10:

But do not be called Rabbi; for One is your Teacher, and you are all brothers.

Here the Greek for rabbi means "my master;" while the Greek for teacher means "instructor." Nevertheless, most Christians elevate their teaching ministers to positions of spiritual authority by calling them pastors, priests, chaplins, elders, and teachers.

Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.

Nevertheless, Catholic Christians call their clergy "father."

Do not be called leaders; for One is your Leader, that is, Christ.

Here the Greek for leaders means guide, master or teacher. Nevertheless, most Christians consider their clergy specially called spiritual leaders whom oversee the church.

Now look at what Paul wrote in Ephesians 4:11:

And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers

Here the Greek translated pastors is pronounced poimēn. And it specifically means a “shepherd.”

But look at what Jesus said in John10:16:

I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; I must bring them also,and they will hear My voice; and they will become one flock with ONE shepherd.

Furthermore,we have already seen how in Matthew 23, Jesus said “for One is your Teacher.” So not only does most of Christianity disobey what Jesus taught, but the apostle Paul promoted such disobedience.

Question:So are Christians free to follow the instructions of Paul, and openly disobey what Jesus taught?

It seems to me there is a lot of adultery in the world:

[27] "You have heard that it was said, `You shall not commit adultery.'
[28] But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Matt 5:27-28 RSV

 

[posthuman]

Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory;
but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
(Philippians 2:3)

 

[seed_time_harvest]

"This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you."

John 15:12

Yes GOD wants us to be saved.
