PAUL

Mahdi Said

Was Paul a real apostle or a fake?

My Reply

Where are you getting this stuff from?

Paul said God's law was a Curse. Jesus said it was a blessing. Who's lying?

My Reply

Why don�t you quote the verses and we can look at them in context.

Mahdi Said

Paul condemned Jesus and His disciples for false teachings, he condemned Jesus Himself for having long hair in 1 Corinthians 11:14, something approved in Numbers 6:5 and Judges 13:5.

My Reply

To understand this 1 Corinthians 11:14b you need to understand what the situation was like in Corinth. At this time Corinth was known for it's immorality and perversity and the men that were sexual perverted had long hair. Paul  didn't want the men in the church to be taken for perverted. That's why he wrote this.

Apart from your point about long hair please quote the verses where Paul condemned Jesus and His disciples for false teachings so we can look at them in context.

Jesus Said: Keep the Sabbath (Mark 2:27)

My Reply

You misunderstand Mark 2:27. Once again you do not understand the context verse or context. According to the religious people Jesus was breaking the Sabbath and Jesus then is condemning the religious people for being too religious with the Sabbath.

Mahdi Said

Jesus said circumcise male children (Luke 2:21) , Paul Said: Circumcision is not necessary (Romans 2:26). that is going against what the Christ said in Luke 2:21.

My Reply

Wrong! You quote this verse is out of context (as usual). Jesus was not even talking in Luke 2.21.

Mahdi Said

Paul was never recognized as an apostle by the Disciples OR Jesus

My Reply

The resurrected Christ initiated Paul as an apostle on the Damascus rd and Peter and James recognized blessed him as an apostle as is shown in the Book of Acts.

Mahdi Said

Paul was never trained by the disciples, the men who walked, talked, and broke bread with our Saviour.

My Reply

and Peter and James recognized him as an apostle as is shown in the Book of Acts.

Mahdi Said

He received his knowledge from "revelations."

Paul's account of his Damascus Road Experience changed every time he told it

My Reply

Mohammad received his knowledge from �revelations� and  Paul had more Jewish credentials than Mohammad ever had.

Where are the verses showing Paul's account of his Damascus Road Experience changed every time he told it ?

Mahdi Said

In 1 Corinthians 15:1 Paul says that he was not giving them anything but what �he preached.� He explained this even further in the second book (or letter) to the Corinthians (2 Corinthians 11:17). It reads - �That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.�

He's telling you plain and simple he was speaking of himself and not from or of the Lord!" 

My Reply

So what�s your point here?

Was your Mohammad a prophet? He was a war monger who lived by the sword. He encouraged his men to take slave girls as prizes and he advised husbands to beat their wives.
