Not once did the actual Disciples of Christ, the anointed, appointed, Apostles of our Lord do so. There are many differences in Saul's teachings to that of Christ. Namely Saul doesn't refer to the time of Jesus when he was alive delivering his ministry. In fact, after Saul's encounter with the light on the Damascus road, two different accounts recorded about that, he avoided the anointed, appointed, Apostles of Christ and for years. Even going so far as to curse them, in his epistle to the church in Galatia. Galatians 1. And expressly verses 8 and 9. While Saul did fulfill Christ's prophecy and warning in, Matthew 24. And interestingly enough, Saul did fulfill all the signs in that warning. He claimed to have seen Christ, a light, on the Damascus road. The Christ that healed the blind , in Saul's encounter blinded Saul with scales on his eyes. Saul claimed that his working wonders and miracles in later epistles were signs he was an Apostle. His epistle to the church in Corinth. 2 Corinthians 12:12 Follow Christ. And ignore those who would hope to insult you when they could have simply said nothing if they didn't appreciate your thread. I think from what I've read across the many boards here that there are many minor children present. They've not read the Bible to know what is actually in it. Or there are adults too that are equally unlearned. Also, I don't think you can forget that as in the dark ages there are those today who think they'll be punished if they think about what the Bible verses are asking them to believe. They take things at face value because they believe the enemy of God discerns what is being said in scripture. When in truth scripture itself tells us not to believe every spirit but to think about what is being taught. Typically I find this to be the case in the argument made that the Bible is inerrant.

Later he spoke to why this was so. 1st Corinthians 1:14-17“Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only baptized one person. And some have never baptized anyone. Don't mean we don't believe in it. nor that its not suppose to be done. Its just not all will do the baptizing to others. Paul focused on preaching the gosple he let the others do the baptizing to the converts. So simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one did that. Paul preached the gospel , i am sure those with him may have done the baptizing. Its like me, if i go out preaching the gospel , and some repent...........i might have the other who was with me do the water baptism. OR if their is no water at the time.........have others do it when their come to an area where water is. Do not over think what is so simple. TRULY paul did follow JESUS. And his writings were so holy spirit filled. My question with those who attack paul as being still as a Pharisee. WHAT is the REAL REASON ya have problems with paul. Their is always an alterior motive. IS it because he warned out about sin so much. THEY ALL DID. OR is it because he was so specific about that abomination that so many now in the church support GAY MARRIAGE. what is the REAL reason for the attacks against pual. WE KNOW THEIR IS>.............and i bet it is HIS APPROACH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the world is changing fast...............i know many have fear. NOT ME , NOT ONE OUNCE but why is it i have no fear of what people think of me, or being persecuted. CAUSE MY PEACE IS REAL . I try and comfort the feeble minded . SO here is some sound good advice. We will all stand before GOD one day. STOP fearing man . Man is not the creator. His wisdom is dung , his mind is dung and he knows not the truth. BUT GRACE can change all that. We aint trying to please the crowd or society or men. WE do all for the glory to GOD.

Cowards attack paul, because they fear man and thus try and make him seem bad or judgmental for speaking out against sin . Paul was no coward of men . and people who fear man will not be like that, and thus they must attack it to make it look wrong so they wont feel convicted about their own cowardice.

LET US ALL PONDER THIS TONIGHT> Your words belie the truth behind them. You say you're not accusing anyone here of this, but this is truth. Cowards attack Paul. The "but" revoked your prior affirmation. In other words, what you said was, cowards attack Paul. You won't have a informative discussion within the realm of Apologetics when you call people cowards for their opinion of scripture. You'll close down conversation because people don't have to engage with those who resort to pejoratives rather than reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
