OK....for this we're gonna need our Bibles...it might get pretty long..!
POST # 1..
Who from scripture was correct in their teaching of Biblical truths...Was Paul correct...or was James...??
The subject to me is an OIL and WATER type issue...Because BOTH can't be right...!
I say that JAMES was in charge of the Jerusalem sect of Judizer / Pharisees who were "believers"...that are mentioned in ACTS 15:1:2..15:5...GAL 1:18..2:1:9...2:11:14...!
James was the one who sent those people that started trouble for Paul..Notice in ACTS 15:1..these men quote MOSES as their spiritual source of information...They were from the church at Jerusalem Acts 15:4..
What these guys were doing was ADDING Moses and the OT Law..to the Gosple message of Jesus Christ.. ( much like some of the Messianic Judiasm people do )...In Acts 15:7 Peter gives his thoughts on the matter and quotes GOD as his spiritual authority..
James in Acts 15:21....gives his Spiritual Authority in his answer..and that authority is MOSES...just like the men used Moses in !5:1 as theirs.!
Paul never went along with this first "Church Council" or it's rulings...As GAL 2:11:14 points out..!
