On my last video: 'The Fatal Errors of The Judaizers'
I deleted a response which seemed to go on another direction of the context of the video. I want to add that thread response here instead.

My video was about Judaizers but a Muslim joined the conversation and had similar objections:

 @bitrudder3792 May Allah (whom you call the father) guide you to what is right.

I truly finding it shocking, that you christians respect honor Paul more then you respect James (aka THE JUST) James he is the brother of Jesus, James walked, talked, slept beside, preached, taught WITH JESUS. James was the one who took over the synagouges from where Jesus left off.



RESPONSE


****James didn't take over EVERY synagogue in Jerusalem! He was able to join those who came to believe in Jesus but Christianity didn't take over all hearts and minds; there were still many who didn't believe in Him. Among those Jews who did believe, they came to congregate in synagogues among other like-minded believers, and James wasn't HEAD over the disciples simply b/c he had the last say on the Jerusalem council of Acts15.







He was head of jerusalem.


RESPONSE:



***He was NOT head over Jerusalem!





When james tells you Faith and works go together, But Paul contradicts Just believe in Jesus thats all you need. Noo sorry, because James teachings go inline with islam.



RESPONSE:
***James wasn't teaching 'faith and works', he was talking about demonstrating faith BY works in James Chapt.2 a common misunderstanding of those who want to refute Paul in order to justify their good works for salvation.


Jesus and James never stepped foot in a church let that sink in lol. What Paul was teaching in churchs was his own gospel not from Jesus. Paul claims his teachings come from Jesus, but galati 1:12 Paul says his gospels came from no human.... Jesus was a human!


RESPONSE:

****Wow, extremely bad Bible reading on your part!

Church only means "gathering" and holds the same concept of a synagogue. Jesus did step into a gathering (Ecclesia) every time He sat w/ His disciples.

Also, the "Church" is His Body (gathering of the elect).

The New covenant Church is simply a New Covenant "GATHERING"...





Paul rarely went to Jerusalem, because Jesus followers wanted to unalive Paul for teaching Jews and gentiles NOT to follow the laws of Moses pb as Jesus himself commanded you to.


RESPONSE:

** **The Epistles and Acts demonstrate that Paul did go to Jerusalem and the other Apostles welcomed Him and praise God for his ministry. Later in Peter's epistle, Peter doesn't just honor him but refer to his writings as "scripture" along side with what we now have as OT scriptures.



Jesus Mathew 5:18 not one letter, not the least stroke of the pen until heaven and earth disappear not a single letter of the law is to be removed.


RESPONSE


***Paul spoke in Romans 3, "Do we end the law because of faith, by no means but we establish the law!"....

Christian doctrine centers in law keeping but the WHOLE law which was NEVER accomplished in the OT by the children of Israel.

Because we're IN Christ, we're justified by FAITH (Romans 5:1) as Abraham was, and this is clear throughout scripture. It is those who are of faith that are Abraham's seed.







Anyone who does will be considered least in the kingdom. What does paul do? Acts 21:21 James and the true followers of Jesus accuse Paul of teaching the jews NOT to circumcise, and not to follow the laws.


RESPONSE:

****This was clearly a false accusation from those Jews who were JUDAIZERS..

Paul makes clear that while it's not a thing to "be all things to all men for the sake of the gospel as he writes in 1 Corinthians 9, he can enter a synagogue, he can enter sacrifices, do washings, keep the feasts, and perform all things that were customary of Jews because he IS a first century Jew, and the temple was still erected! But it doesn't mean that we're NOW saved by all those rituals which were simply a shadow of things to come. Jesus is now the substance of all those things as taught in the book of Hebrews.




Paul was found guilty, he was required to pay the dues and promised that accusations against him were false. But we know they were not false!


RESPONSE:
***That is not the context of Acts 21 at all. That is extra-drama laid over the text and terribly bad isogenies. Paul's ritual at the temple was done freely by him as he consented to by James's advice. He didn't have to do the sacrifice and the Jews weren't requiring him to do so. The Apostles simply wanted to demonstrate to them that the rumors of Paul were exaggerated and wrong. However, soon after, their true hypocrisy and hateful motives were demonstrated as they falsely accused Paul of letting a Gentile enter into the temple when it wasn't true.

Paul taught that are not under the bondage of holding to works, rituals and observances as a means to be right with God but are free in Christ who justifies us before The Father. Christ not only lived that life (being true Israel) in keeping the law perfectly but was also the satisfaction of the law in sacrifice and atonement for our sins before The Father.







This is why you had the people from jerusalem travel go out of there way and make a huge journey to turkey aka galatia and back to correct Pauls misguidance of Jesus.



***Paul is clear in Galatians that THEY were the ones who departed the faith and were "bewitched". He stated exactly what he told Peter in front of all the apostles, that we're saved by grace through faith which is exactly what Peter believed when he spoke up at the reception of the Holy Spirit during Pentecost in Acts. 4!




Jesus never taught that blood sacrafice is required for sins, this is pauls teachings. Paul tells us that because Jesus was hung on a pole that jesus became a curse..... WHAT? Jesus became a curse?? YES Paul states Jesus became a curse. Do you know if a muslim said Jesus became a curse this would knock us out of islam?




RESPONSE:
**** Outrageous! You have to ignore the whole Levitical system given in Lev. 16 in order to ignore that there was no need for blood sacrifice when in fact, yearly, it was a blood bath at the temple! That's what the temple was for! For worship and sacrifice!

And it was b/c of SIN!!! that they had to sacrifice animals. Animal sacrifice is seen as early as in the garden with God sacrificing an animal to clothe Adam and Eve's shame, (SIN) and the sacrifice of an animal for Abraham and Issac hundreds of years later. Yeshua would be sacrificed as "The Lamb of God". You really don't know how to read the scriptures. Death for sins against God is ALWAYS a curse. The penalty for sins is always a curse... Jesus became that curse for His people when He died on a torturous, shameful and dreadful cross.



2 Corinthians 5:21 -
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.



Hebrews 2:17
Therefore, He had to be made like His brothers in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.



2 Corinthians 5:21 -
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.


Philippians 3:9 -
and be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own which is from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God upon faith,




Muslims we honor accept love Jesus (Peace and Blessings upon him) you cannot be a muslim if you do not accept Jesus. Genesis says those who curse israel (israelite tribes prophets) will be cursed, and those who bless israel will be blessed. A muslim cannot say Jesus name without adding PB or peace n blessings upon him.


Muhammed pb, his teaches are the exact same teachings as Jesus. Muhammed did not come up with a new religion, thats why Muhammed confirmed Jesus, at a time when the jews were rejecting him. Similiarlly, Jesus he did not come with a new religion. Jesus confirmed moses! The word christianity wasnt taught by Jesus, it came from Paul.





RESPONSE:

***Islam is extremely misguided, disjointed and convoluted theology and you need the Bible to teach you of the gospel and the Torah. But most of that isn't in the Quran. The Jesus of the Quran is NON EVENTFUL and UNINFORMATIVE. He does nothing but bring birds of clay to life...

There isn't enough context w/in the Quran to know about the true Jesus and you need the Bible in order to know about Him. The Quran demonstrates that it utilizes known gnostic texts to describe accounts of Jesus so Islam doesn't know true Judaism nor true Christianity yet necessitates that you rely on Christianity and the Torah in order to corroborate and confirm the Quran.

If the Quran is wrong, Islam is false and if the Quran is correct, Islam is false also!

Turn to the True Jesus and live!

Oh my goodness, everyone should watch Tim Tebow's interview on The Shawn Ryan Podcast!
Deep.. incredibly deep! We must have the issues of child sex exploitation at the forefront of our minds! And we must visit this problem and wickedness every single day until we destroy the works of Satan on the earth. The USA is literally BABYLON with regard to this problem but Christ came to destroy the works of Satan. As Christians, we must GO TO GOD, on our knees and ask and plead with The Lord, "How can I do something"; "Use me oh Lord"...

Watch this interview.

This Wednesday, 5/21, God willing, I'm going to try and schedule a live here on YouTube where I'll 'off the cuff' try and respond to @CapturingChristianity on one of his latest videos: "I Spent a Year Researching Sola Scriptura—Here's 9 Reasons Why It's False".


I'm going to demonstrate how he sadly wasted a whole year of research just to come up with the same, lame arguments against #solascriptura. His 9 reasons are nothing more than simplistic arguments filled with question begging, historical religious developments through time, and bad Biblical hermeneutical eisegesis, etc.


I continue to be blown away as to how so many young people are falling for these simplistic and bad arguments!
Look out for my response coming soon!

This is his video:

An unhinged ‪@ValOrthodoxia‬ tried to debate ‪@NeedGodnet‬ with the old and stale "infallible canon" argument and embarrassingly couldn't end well like too many of these young caged-staged religionists. I wonder how many of them have elders or priests who KNOW they're on YouTube acting the fool? ....lol.

I contributed my comment:

"Your epistemic problem is a non problem. The early believers wrote stuff down and consensus was established. That consensus doesn't have to be infallible, you just have to have faith that the canon you have is a work of God. At some point, you're going to have to rely on faith - hopefully, it'll be in God not in man."

And so, how is this any different than believing in the very Words of God in scripture?
While I believe that God "graced" me to believe, nevertheless, from my outlook, I am being called to "repent and believe"... FAITH is what hinges our religion.

Check out my "refuting EO" playlist here on YT.
Here is the link to the debate video: (No one got cooked here, rather ‪@ValOrthodoxia‬ left Ryan pretty raw! LOL)

So many trip over the notion of God's decree's to the point of contradicting the understanding of His sovereignty. (From the recent Romans 9 James White vs. AK Richardson debate)

youtube.com/clip/Ugkxnf6PSjmKvkARUVt-toIny2F48GSPf…


The 2nd clip is the state of ignorance the Synergist inhabits not fully understanding the sovereignty of God to the point were they have to advocate for the ones who refuse to come to Christ for salvation. They argue on behalf of those who are damned in their rebellion. He pathetically argues that the damned are not able to receive forgiveness when in fact, they spit in the face of Christ, and as the book of Revelation demonstrates refuse to repent. Here he is advocating for them.

I'll be live on the Podbean app. You can find the stream on www.divinenature.net or download the Podbean app. to interact. Today's show, despite getting over a cold and having limited voice, will be on the empty false accusations of some calling Reformed Theology, Gnosticism, and why some religious folk hate the doctrine of Penal Substitutionary Atonement, etc.

I'm also going to upload special video on www.divinenature.net defending why I don't waste my time debating online. When not professionally moderated, debating can only turn into dumpster fires where no one gets to learn anything but are more about people defending their respective "teams and colors", and tribe, pushing egos, and picking favorites, etc.

There's no honoring Christ in any of that!

I'm going to give a response to an EO video which finds itself needing to literally distort scripture in order to follow along with religious philosophical tradition. It's more than apparent, that when these philosophies were being developed, there was less emphasis on the actual WORD OF GOD than on the religious philosophies of men, because now having the scriptures before us, men must hop-scotch past proper exegesis in order to affirm "tradition". How sad and again I say, how sad!! What must we trust... The Word of God preserved or the fallible words of men, and philosophies (as warned in Colossians 2:8)?

The author of this video erased my response back to his calling me a Nestorian which obviously demonstrates an willingness to avoid correction. His appeals to "what the church teaches" is pure begging the question" as though the early church has spoken "infallibly" in all their councils, etc. It's more than obvious that he believes in infallible church authority. But what is more infallible than what is taught in the very Words of God (scripture)? He might be too stuck in his hierarchal church religiosity to answer that question.

Some have even damningly accused certain protestants of being a cult. But what is more cult-like than following the teachings of mere men and not being able to find authority outside a hierarchical and organizational structures of men? We pray that The Holy Spirit will continue freeing souls and opening up eyes in these latter times.

On #solascriptura :

Sola scriptura argues for the pre-eminence of scripture, being God's infallible Word throughput OT and NT. To deny sola scriptura is to deny that pre-eminence of God's Word, especially if it is the only infallible source of God's truth and revelation.
