So what's the story Jerry Why did you start this thread? You want to eliminate James? Did Paul hang on that cross? If someone THINKS they are following Jesus but are not, a la Jim Jones. Does that disqualify Jesus from being the Main Character of the NT?? Jesus is still the final authority...

Oh. So you do watch modern day moves. That was a good one.

Are you talking about the Julian asange affair?

I agree. Doctrine cannot be made using one verse. The Bible is a complete thought and this must always be taken into consideration. Do you feel I've done this?

Haven't read it yet. It's late here...too tired. Looks like deep stuff...

We all get stressed. Imagine the stress if we Didn't know Him! We could only do our best.

Agreed. It sounded like you were saying something different.

Wow. You've said a mouthful ! More knowledge in this one post than ..... Here's what I think... You cannot learn from the internet because there are different doctrines and concepts being proposed and some are not even legitimate. However, I've found wikipedia to be very reliable and serious.

But if what you say is true, it means we could all just believe whatever we want to. Is this what you're saying?

Hi I have another solution... First of all there's no problem between Paul and James. This is a modern "problem". I can list what the early theologians believed about this...no conflict. This idea of faith only was unheard of till recently. Second... The BEST SOLUTION is to do this: When unsure...

I agree with you. But there are persons reading along here that we're not even aware of. New Christians cannot learn that the Law has been abolished and that nothing is required of us except to believe in Jesus. This is nonsense. This was not Jesus' purpose to come to us. I will always defend...
