Atheists, Paul at a young age was a master at Jewish law, so shouldn't the things he said of Jesus be true?

Jesus was a Jew, so Paul knew exactly what laws Jesus went by and exactly what laws that we're not supposed to go by. Paul also was the smartest of all the apostles, so wouldn't it make more sense that the apostles couldn't preach as powerful to the Jews about Jesus because they didn't know as much as Paul did?





Galatians 1


1Paul, an apostle (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),....





14I was advancing in Judaism beyond many Jews of my own age and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers.Atheists, Paul at a young age was a master at Jewish law, so shouldn't the things he said of Jesus be true?
Paul was a Hellenized Jew. The idea that he was a master of Jewish law is total bullsh!t. If you would PLEASE read any number of the books I have suggested for you, you would know this. But even if you never do, a careful reading of Paul's own letters should tell you that he knew very little about Judaism. Atheists, Paul at a young age was a master at Jewish law, so shouldn't the things he said of Jesus be true?
Paul/Saul was not one of the 12 apostles. In fact, he terrorized the people who accepted the Original Gospel. Acts 7:56 to 8:3





The biggest disaster for the church is when they accepted Paul's teachings and turned their back on the Original Gospel. More on my biography.
Doesn't follow.





Jesus came to sum up all the old law with one: Love God and each other. Apparently, Paul's love of the law and his goal of recruiting as many people as possible into the church superceded, in his own mind, Jesus's law of love.





There is no evidence that Paul was the smartest of all the apostles. He might have been the most educated, but that doesn't mean he was the smartest. Besides, intelligence may or may not have anything to do with the ability to love the way Jesus told us to.
Well that's a non-sequitur!





And of course, on the whole, Paul couldn't convince the jews.


Acts 18:6, 28:25-26. ... since Jews reject the gospel, he will take it to the Gentiles.








And given some of the other things Paul has said...












and where do we get all this information about Paul that sets him in such a good light?





Surprise surprise, most of it comes from books and texts he or his followers would have either written or had absolute control over with regards contents and publication.
Paul was psychotic, probably a hebaphrenic schizophrenic, not to mention a raving gynophobe. Anything he said about 'jesus' would have to be taken with a large measure of salt.
Isnt Paul the guy who got sunstroke, fell off his camel, banged his head and hallucinated jesus?





Why would you think a hallucination gives something validity?





And why would you think we would care about it anyway?
so whoever is master of Jewish law, he can say anything about Jesus againt the teaching of Jesus, still he is right..





Is this is the logic.
Yoda was a master of the Force, shouldn't the things he said about Luke Skywalker be true?





See? Words in a book are not proof. Try again



Johnnie Cochran was an expert at law at a young age, so shouldn't the things he said about OJ be true?
Please can you answer this: why do you assume that we atheists would care about Paul so much?
And which Jewish authority said this?
You are plainly not a Christian!!





CHRISTIAN – A follower or believer in Jesus. Note: That is jesus not Paul!!





It is a complete contradiction!!





You must be a fundamentalist.





FUNDAMENTALIST One who believes the Bible is literally true and must be followed exactly.





Therefore you are a follower of the bible and not Jesus making you non Christian!!!





But worse is to follow it also makes you an ideologist.





IDEOLOGY An idea that is false or held for the wrong reasons but is believed with such conviction as to be irrefutable.





So Christians have a loving and forgiving god and fundamentalist like you are - well - Just are not Christians!!!!





But you are doing a wonderful job as the recruiting sergeant for atheism!!
Two points please:





1. Just because a Jewish or Torah Scholar believes in something, it doesn't mean they are truly correct. If this be so, then every scholar would be perfectly true and correct, and we should blindly believe them.


The Pope is a great Catholic leader, but that doesn't mean you can't disagree with him.





2. Why is this question being asked on a Jewish site? If you have a question about Jewish ethical law, our relationship to G-d, or any other question related to Judaism, please do, if not, than go to a CBN or other Christian site. Judaism is an ancient and incredibly deep civilization and religion, with a written history from every civilized country in the world. This preoccupation with St. Paul seems petty and out of place. No offense to your personal beliefs of course. It just is not applicable in a Judaic sense.
