I could see where you are coming from and have thought about your claims about christ and about paul but am not sure that you are right about either. I really don't think you are right about Paul and his intentions or his message actually. I have just read Ephesians 1 & 2 in the Message Bible which speaks a different story to the one you related to me over the tv. Ephesians 2 14-18 is particularly relevant,exciting and gracious. It talks about how christ "The messiah has made things up betweens us, so that we are now together on this both non-Jewish outsider and Jewish Insiders" how he has "tore down the wall that we used to keep each other at a distance" and how Christ "brought us together through His death on the cross. The cross got us to embrace and that was the end of that". We are new creations in Christ, Paul goes on in verse 16-18 "Christ came and preached peace to you outsiders and peace to us insiders. He Treated us as equals and so made equals. Through Him we both share the same spirit and have equal access to the Father." "Thats plain enough, isn't it! You're no longer wandering exiles. This kingdom of faith is now you home country. You're no longer strangers or outsiders. You belong here with as much right to the name Christian as anyone. God is building a home. He's using us all - irrespective of how we got here - in what He is building." there more its great there are no outsiders because of Christ and what He did on the cross.pandahandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03895950589071837565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8960380041268592011.post-44279374573803715072009-01-14T19:43:00.000+00:002009-01-14T19:43:00.000+00:00Thanks for your article on Jesus the Jew on channe...Thanks for your article on Jesus the Jew on channel4!
