VoW,

Um, Jesus was and is GOD, both before and after the Crucifixion. And God's words take precendence over anyone else's!
------------------
That's true only if you believe Paul wrote 2/3s of the NT out of his own head.
Eph 3:1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward: 3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
-----------------------
Well, Luther thought the Pauline letters were more important than the Gospel...
-----------------------
I'd have to agree with Luther. So do many Christians. The thing is, some parts of the Bible are less relevant for the church today than other parts of the Bible. eg I'd rather study the Pauline letters TO the church (ie me) first then to dwell on Leviticus or Deuteronomy, although both are God's Word.
