That would be the Marcionism, Docitism, Dispensationalism, covenantism, & supersessionism that Paul and his epistles ushered in (that I previously spoke about).
Saying the same lie over and over again for 2000 years doesn't make it true.
Ironically, all the original immediate descendants from the "Jerusalem Church" IE the Original 12 Disciples to include the Nazoreans, Ebionites, and jewish-christians in Arabia (they all came from the same doctrine taught by Jesus) none of them ever accepted Paul or his writings as Doctrine ever taught by Jesus. Paul wasn't accepted until well after Romans began corrupting what Jesus brought.
So what I'm saying is, you can quote "Pauline Epistle" all you want but I know the history and I know Jesus' Word only.....He never said anything about incorporating paganism into his teachings.
Yep, Paul said it, Paul said all sorts of nifty things that approved all sorts of brand new goings-on, but Jesus never said them nor did his Father. What Jesus DID say mirrored exactly what His Father said.....which is what I've already quoted.

What does this have to do at all with New Years? I’m curious. This is a thorough attack on the Apostle Paul. And yet, I will weigh in on some things here.
The Apostle Paul never set out to contradict Christ, nor did he do so. He never met Christ EXCEPT during the event where he was on the road to Damascus. Paul’s ministry did not revolve around trying to quote this or that, or twist anything around.
Christ’s ministry on earth was before the influence of the Holy Spirit. All of the four gospels record Christ’s birth, ministry, death, and resurrection. Paul picks up after the resurrection and experiences the Holy Spirit. The whole purpose of Paul’s writings place into context the Law, how Christ fulfilled the law, and the experience pertaining to living in this world with the Holy Spirit and chronicles the essence of the struggle.
Regardless of the attacks leveled at Paul, we who have accepted Christ as our Lord and Savior, can relate to Him and identify with him on a PERSONAL LEVEL with his experiences.
Wherever this Anti-Paul stuff comes from, it is derrived from some sort of a conspiracy which does nothing more than create chaos and mass confusion. After all the essence of the salvation message is communicated effectively through Paul. It’s definately something to think about.
