I dont need Paul to follow JesusYou have a problem with Jesus then. He is the source of Paul's teaching.

Based on my question you can not use paul or the narrator of the bible, but only the words of Jesus. Please use red letter quotes to show me where it talks about Pauline faith. It would seem many of you follow paul and not Jesus.
TMAStill so blind that you will not see the thread is about how the TOJ align with the TOP.

No, but you do need to know the gospel as taught by Paul and the other Apostles.I dont need Paul to follow Jesus
Jesus teaches the law of love and how it binds you to the law of one. These laws are inscribed on your heart. What Paul teaches just seems ailen to me.How can you not see that the teachings of Paul are scripture? How do you know that the gospels record the words of Jesus? How do you know anything that was said and done 2,000 years ago?
No you don't. Jesus has the words of life.No, but you do need to know the gospel as taught by Paul and the other Apostles.
Im still convinced that Paul is not necessary to follow Jesus and be reconciled with the father. There for I consider Paul as a testimony account to help me grow but not my foundation. I take it with a grain of salt. Old Testament is similar but more to show how we can waver from gods plan, and the fathers heart to reconcile us. Which god did through Jesus. If everything is proven to be false even the resurrection im ok with this. I believe that Jesus teaching and laws is enough for me.
What does Paul say that is alien? It is possible to answer specifics, but not vague statements.Jesus teaches the law of love and how it binds you to the law of one. These laws are inscribed on your heart. What Paul teaches just seems ailen to me.
No you don't. Jesus has the words of life.
Paul is not an apostle or he would have taught Christ.And the apostles are the only reason we know about Jesus. And Jesus said the one who hears the apostles, hears him.

Right. Which is not works-based.I agree. Paul teaches mortification of the flesh and stresses to fallow laws of morality. Such as not sleeping with your mother.
How much of the New Testament have you read? Your statement is absurd.Paul is not an apostle or he would have taught Christ.
I already agree that Paul ment well andPeter called him a beloved brother who spoke the truth. Sounds like this scripture applies to you
And account [that] the longsuffering of our Lord [is] salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all [his] epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as [they do] also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. 2 Peter 3:15-16
Thats not true. The Holy Spirit helps us know Christ which has be reviled through his apostles. I don't belive the bible is without error. We are instructed to discern.Jesus said that the Holy Spirit would be given to lead His people into all truth. (John 16:13). If the words of Jesus were sufficient, we would not need the Holy Spirit to lead us into more truth. You say that you believe the words of Jesus? Good. Then accept what He said about the work of the Holy Spirit.
The words of Paul in scripture are the words of Jesus.Jesus teaches the law of love and how it binds you to the law of one. These laws are inscribed on your heart. What Paul teaches just seems ailen to me.
I dont need the resurrection to be true to follow christHow much of the New Testament have you read? Your statement is absurd.
"For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified." 1 Corinthians 2:2
The words of Paul in scripture are the words of Jesus.
I dont need the resurrection to be true to follow christ
