I don't have a low opinion of +Paul. He did a great deal of good for the Church. The Church would not have survived without him altering the faith and making it palatable and acceptable to the Gentiles. +Paul did not follow any scripture when he changed dietary restrictions, the Law and the circumcision. Surely you don't believe Christ taught that?!

Of course, the Orthodox Church would never say what I say. Maybe the Church is not doing it for the greater good. The Church doesn't err. I do. Maybe one day I will see it differently, but there is a lot about +Paul that most people don't know and there are even more who feel that knowing more would be "bad." I don't.

I don't really care if you think I am a Christian or not, Blogger. My pay is the same. Yours is only to read my opinions if you so choose and respond with your own.

Do you have a problem with me stating my opinions, asking questions? If so, please state so and also tell me by what authority do you censor my thoughts or judge my beliefs?

Sorry for the ping. Didin't catch your name until I replied.

You aren't making things better for yourself. Was it not Christ who allowed the Disciples to eat grain on the sabbath and challenged all of the rules that the Pharisees pushed onto the people. The law was our schoolteacher- to show us we can not save ourselves. That is in Scripture in case you wonder. Somewhere in the Apostle whose work you dismiss. Kosta, you have a different Gospel than that delivered to the church. That is clear. I do not lump Kolo and others Orthodox in that same boat (at least not yet since I haven't seen some of the agregious things that you have said leaving their keypads). I pray that you learn the true Gospel as laid out in Scripture.

I have big problems with your opinions seeing that they are contrary to Scripture, contrary to Christianity, and contrary to any understanding of a God you can actually worship. Your opinions turn God into a liar and make His Word impossible to trust. So, yes, I have a HUGE problem with your opinions.

As to your stating your opinions, nobody has stopped you. I haven't pulled in the Religion Moderator and said oh please make Kosta stop. Frankly, the more you speak the more you show how a life devoid of Scripture can take you only one way - and it ain't good.

The Apostle Paul was a man chosen directly by God to carry out God's task of preaching to the Gentiles. For his contribution to the church, neither one of us is even worthy to unlatch his shoes.
