Paul does not fail me. For He is indirectly substantiated by Jesus Christ Himself.

For Jesus substantiated Peter (John 14:26, 16:13) and Peter substantiated Paul (2 Peter 3:15-16).

btw, Paul also substantiated the rest of holy scripture with a statement of his own (2 Timothy 3:15-17)....and without Paul's writings, we do not have the substantiation of all of holy scripture.

Wow. Have you ever taken a step back and really LOOKED at the crap you post?

You spew this stuff while telling us we need to ooze agape love?

I am neither Jesus nor God, at least I do not threaten eternal damnation! I am just trying to correct those of you who currently believe in the kind of God that is OPPOSITE of the one revealed by Jesus Christ.

I'm talking about the horribly mean things you say while claiming to be full of agape love. You're like the Frank Burns of C-D forums.

I'm not the one that constantly tells others they worship a book, and that their thoughts are barbaric.

You want me to treat you nice? Be nice.

When you refer to the Bible as Holy you equate it with the only entity that IS Holy - God. When you combine that reverent title with using its content as if it is the infallible and inerrant word of God OVER testing it against the only human reference we have been given about God, Jesus Christ, THAT is a form of worship of a book.

When you interpret Christ's "wrathless" act of pure and perfect agape love and forgiveness by enduring the wrath and vengeance of our brutal savage ancestors as a blood sacrifice payment to God's wrath and vengeance for "whatever," THAT is barbaric. When you personally identify with these things, it is not ME calling you those things, BF. It is you self-identifying with them.

Another example of you telling us what we believe.

No. I don't. That's stupid. I don't believe the Bible is equal to God.

And when you base the message God has spoken against your own subjective experience you rejected what God has told us.

Honestly? I didn't read this last part past the first sentence. It's the same old thing over and over and over.

Your subjective experience means nothing to me.

Calling it Holy is the same thing.

Not when it MATCHES what is described about the "mind of Christ" and God's Holy Spirit of agape love and forgiveness as revealed unambiguously by Jesus on the Cross.

I noticed that about fundies. You deliberately blind yourself to anything that disagrees with your blinkered beliefs about God.

It doesn't have to, but the fact that it MATCHES with the Holy Spirit of God as revealed and unambiguously demonstrated by Jesus Christ on the Cross, SHOULD!

When you continue to completely ignore and/or misrepresent what we believe, tell me why anyone should believe a word of what you say about anything? Whether it's about God or anything else?

I suppose it's possible you simply misunderstand me. And if that's the case, then why would I not believe you've been catfished by whatever spirit you claim to be following?
