If it looks like an idol and is worshipped like an idol, it's an idol. Acts 19: 24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen; 25 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye...

You say prayers to Mary.

Another one who reads something it to what is said. Funny, because you both do the same thing with scripture. Luke is clearly a Kingdom believer because Paul had not yet started preaching his gospel. No, I'm suggesting no such thing about Ananias. God used Ananias, who was a Kingdom...

So look into the word ecclesia. It's an assembly. For instance the church in Jerusalem is referring to the Jews who accepted Jesus Christ as their Messiah. They were also called the little flock. Luke 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom...

Why? You refuse to listen and you twist every scripture trying to make it speak to you.

To the Jews. All to the Jews. Law law law.

Actually, he was the only Apostle to the gentiles.

If we don't tell them that Christ did it all....it is finished....then they will, inevitably, begin to think of ways they can add to what Christ has done. I actually think it's part of our human nature. I've seen it my entire life, and that's why Paul makes such a big deal of keeping law and...

So how can you say you are more Christian than someone else.....unless you've got something you're boasting in?

Women idols are always the sex of choice.

In the midst of speaking to the Jews, he was "presumptuous" enough to say he knew the plan for the gentiles.

Paul was the apostle to the Gentiles. Did that stick a burr under your saddle? There were a few Jews saved under his gospel, just as there were some gentiles saved under the Kingdom gospel. This is really very simple. Galatians 2:2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them...

Look at all that and Paul hadn't even written his epistles to the churches yet. It's also interesting because it's all recorded by Luke who was a Kingdom believer. I always marvel at Acts. It's such a period of transition. The church is a "flock" is not really doing Paul justice, since we...

Don't play coy with me. Paul was the apostle to the gentiles. Romans 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:

Paul is very clear that certain things are written in scripture, and other things (the mysteries) were never revealed until they were revealed to Paul.

He never says to search the scriptures concerning the mysteries.

Why would I need to know that? I'm not a Jew awaiting the Messiah. I'm a gentile and read what Paul wrote to the gentiles.

And where are the scriptures that talk about the rapture of the church? And where are the scriptures that speak of the body of Christ? And where are the scriptures that speak of the new creature....created IN Christ Jesus? Take away Paul's letters and see what you're left with.

That's a bunch of malarkey. You just can't handle the truth. Heck, you think Paul preached the same gospel as Jesus and the apostles preached when He walked among us. I believe you're in denial of what the RISEN LORD revealed to Paul....which is why you can't claim to understand what Paul...

(y) I don't think that true of the gentiles. The Jews, yes, they were steeped in the law, and it was the Jews who were tempted to fall back into law keeping. Gentiles, on the other hand were prone to falling back into sin and idol worship. Yep, you're sure right about that. It's a sad...
