I would not spend five minutes in a church where the preacher talked about himself as much as Paul does.

Posts like this are utterly repulsive. Why don't you tell us what "church" you DO attend? We will likely discover you attend a legalistic cult. Care to tell us? By the way...

"For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin." (Rom 7:14-25)

This is a passage that is universally hated by Cultists for one very good reason: All of them are more self-righteous, and will not be humbled to confess their own inherent sin as Paul does. And if they do, they will always add the caveat: "But if we work really hard, we can be sinless."

Are you just saying that to make me think you are actually
believing I said something vulgar?

I guess I should have said as much as Paul seems to.

I would not mind telling you if it had anything to do with the comment which I made but it don`t.

I Believe Paul was a Christian, at the same time I can see that the contradictions in which the ones use who are thinking of Paul as a little shady speak for them selves for any one who can read.

uh,uh don`t worry, you do not have to be able to read to be saved.

And if you refuse to see it then I should ask what demonic cult you belong to but since it is none of my business I won`t ask.
