1Cor. 11:1
Paul said
1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
That is very plain spoken translated English. How many time did he say it. In very plain speech Paul said to follow him as he followed Christ. These words can be a stumbling block to those that have been long taught not to follow man and do just as Jesus of Nazareth did.
Without any idea what Paul was talking about they give their foolish notions.
No idea when you follow Paul you are following Christ, no understanding of what Paul was bringing to the body of Christ. Their foolish teaching would be better suited to quote "no man can teach you but the anointing." Looking forward to the day that comes from a pulpit.
For a believer to see what Paul had to say and follow him, they first must see that what was given to Moses was for Israel only, it is not for the Gentile or born again.
The born again believer has been given a new message, a new gospel that comes through the cross.
The death of Christ on the cross changed the process for God's earthly people. No longer was "heaven on earth" in view, but God initiated a new program where believers would be invited directly to
the Father's house. This was a radical change in God's plan. This change was not an "off the cuff" last minute change. It had been in God's mind even before He created the earth, Eph. 1:4
4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
