UPDATE: SATURDAY FEBRUARY 2, 2019 4.33 pm

This is a quick writing about the Apostle Paul and because of his teaching and mission as he became a believing in the Messiah, Christ Jesus, (Yeshua). I wanted to have a quick word. There is writing and talk where people feel Paul was a false prophet, teacher or Apostle. Some of the writings are from very educated people and they bring profound arguments forth. I believe this was the first century and Paul met Apostle Peter and some others. I feel because Apostle Paul used to persecute Christians and he became a believer on the road to Damascus when he seen a bright light and Christ spoke to him as he heard a voice from heaven say, "why do you persecute me", he was not a false Apostle/believer. He was with others that may have heard the voice as well but seen no one there. I've reviewed this more than once and a little bit extensively and I will tell you the 66 books of the bible were meant to be. Paul gave his life for the faith as he was beheaded by Nero. A man that was persecuting the Christians such as Paul who "used" to be a Pharisee would not have done what he did if he did not care about God/Christ. It just would not make any sense. He realized his enemies were that demonic world that is unseen as well as humans who apposed Christ and God. And he taught that people that love and obey God should walk according to the spirit which is true. I can tell you GOD is real. Christ is REAL! His mission was to other Jews too but he took the gospel to the gentiles as well as it is said or written. Some Jewish people may feel Paul is a tool of Satin's and Peter even said some of things he was saying/taught may be a little confusing. I know the heart has to be right with God. The lord Jesus Christ said he will tell many who thought they knew him he does not know them. He said if you love me keep my commandments.

Some think/say Paul was a tool of Satin used to corrupt the gospel of Jesus Christ and change the law. My initial thought is God choose Israel and made a covenant with that nation. Christ's great commission was to preach The Kingdom unto the world. Get people saved and teach them to observe/obey all things that he wanted them too. They understood the gentiles were not Jewish people, and it is impossible to obey all Gods laws perfectly for most gentiles. So God extended grace through Paul as to give time to grow and develop in walking with the lord. Paul has been accused of many things. Remember in Christ days it was the religious system of the Sanhedrin that turned Jesus over for persecution. Christ called them devils and of their father the devil, snakes and told his disciples many would be turned over to the religious leaders and be subject in synagogue's for persecution and trails. There were some who loved the lord but the main religious system wanted him gone. How can this be if Satin was not with them as well? No one is perfect! Hate is evil so don't hate the Jews as Christ loved them. Getting them to understand Christ was the true messiah as well preaching to gentiles must not have been easy but Paul understood God/Christ was real and he found out what some people do that they had been deceived by the serpent/evil. We can reason all day/for what we perceive is forever but remember The Messiah said, "The Least has to be first" and he said the religious leaders sin remained. They were blind! The heart has to be right with God. Christ's Kingdom does not work as man would like it too. Man must be humble and as a little child innocent and forgiving. He must believe and be reborn of the spirit given by God.

You can gain the WHOLE WORLD AND LOSE YOUR SOUL. Remember that! Many will reap and parish! Repent & Get Saved. It's REAL. WAKE UP!

Below there are other links as well and it's easy to "assume" regarding Paul but the gospel is True. Read an article on Got Question that was interesting as well in regards to this matter. There is yet another blog in the Jesus words only blog. It is interesting as well. See the "other" links as well below. We are warned no to ad or take away from the gospel.

So the Apostle Peter said wisdom was given unto Paul of Tart-us.

"Paul the Apostle, commonly known as Saint Paul and also known by his Jewish name Saul of Tarsus, was an apostle who taught the gospel of Christ to the first-century world." He was born in Tarsus, Turkey.

Too ad to this Paul was concerned about people whom had corrupted themselves with idols. What the world is lost in today. He preached against this and when people forgot that it was their faith in the word, in believing Christ that brought them to understand he is real and to get saved. It's not their works in the way that did not save them. Christ talked about GREAT faith. Abraham believed and it was counted to him as righteousness. Paul understood the carnal mind is enmity "against" God. Man has made a sport out of this sort of thing and look at the abortion rate today on a yearly bases. A man MUST be born again of the spirit of God.

IN RETROSPECT: In Conclusion look at Mathew 23.5 "But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments." Christ knows our hearts and the bible says Christ knew their hearts. Mathew 23, 29-39 There the lord made accusations against the religious leaders of his day and he talked about persecuting people in their synagogues. He called them hypocrites, white sepulchres, unable to escape hell, a generation of vipers and the children of those who "killed" the prophets. Who sent the prophets? God/Christ.

A LITTLE LEAVEN LEAVENS THE WHOLE LOAD: Now of course the world is FULL of wickedness and man is on the way to hell as fast as he can go. Where will you go after this life?

So here is a little bit of research on this matter.

The Apostle Paul

I did read a huge portion of these links below. And I note the capital (A) for Apostle discussion issue. Paul may of thought of himself as a major Messenger. The articles are profound in their writings and I do note that they say or feel the holy spirit choose Matthias as the replacement for Judas. They say they prayed and cast lots and it fell on Matthias. Not sure if casting lots would be proper. Some people dispute this. Paul did not see Christ but he heard a voice. They make reference to Paul boasting and being a tad cunning at times. Very long articles indeed. What happens if the world went "back" under the law. Most people would not make heaven because it is impossible for gentiles to keep the law perfectly. Only Christ was able to do that. That does not mean we have a license to sin. It's interesting that Christ said the law of the prophets was proclaimed until John and now we preach the Kingdom of God and everyone is forcing his way into it. There are some additional links below.

Regardless remember we don't have a license to sin and the heart MUST be right with God. We need to say yes to God and many people say no to God. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit their soul.

WALK IN THE SPIRIT

SERMON VIDEO/AUDIO

Additional writings. People have become born again genuinely by the gospel and by believing Christ died, was berried and rose again on the 3rd day in their hearts. There are those who read and believe the 66 books of the bible as they were baptized in full immersion in the name of the lord. The bible warns us not to ad or take away from the book in Revelations 22.18.21 Christ is risen and he is real. I do note/know about the baptism of the holy spirit. I read about that. The word of God has power to change lives so PLEASE preach that word as there will be many who parish otherwise. Christ did say everything rests on two commandments and that is to love your nab-our as yourselves and to love God with all your heart, mind and soul. What would that mean? To honour him in spirit & truth and obey him. He does not favour those who do evil and he knows who they are. Workers of inequity will not inherit the Kingdom. If we walk in the spirit we will obey God and not the lustful sinful and evil world. Remember God's word that the World Loves it's own. Those that are like it and evil in their hearts. Those that live for the world and all it's wrong ways. The tongue has the power of life and death. The holy spirit testifies that this book is real. So many are deceived. The word of GOD stands forever. There is ONLY ONE NAME given unto man to be saved. Remember that.
