    It is if you think dispensationalism is doctrinal error.

    A rather odd statement. This has nothing to do with dispensationalism. Night and day.

    What neither TS or BH understand is the simple gospel of Jesus Christ. They imagine that right terms (grace, believe, justification, eternal life; etc.) means right UNDERSTANDING of those terms. Nothing could be further from the truth.

    The gospel of Jesus Christ includes not merely recognition of the right gospel terms but the right understanding of those gospel terms.

    "Another gospel" does not repudiate the gospel terms but rather repudiates the proper understanding of those terms and redefines them to mean something completely contrary to the Gos and/or adds or subtracts to the gospel of Christ - Gal. 1:8-9; 1 Cor. 15:9-20; etc.

    I think Paul was a little screwed up but one thing we can know for sure: Paul wasn't in it for the money.

    Bill you are the only one "screwed up" when it comes to Paul or your views. If Paul did not write by inspiration then he flat lied. If his salvation testimony was not true then he flat lied. There is no indication in history that any of the congregations he planted were rejected by the 12 apostles or that they rejected Paul's writings as inspired scripture. Peter certainly claimed they were "as other scriptures" - 2 Pet. 3:15-17.

    There is Zero need to have an understanding of terms to be saved. Faith like that of a child is what is required. Children understand that being a good boy means not doing bad things. Children want to be obedient, and they want their parents to be happy with them. Salvation is that easy, but it still requires, obedience, repentance. And for those who have grown to close with the world, a renewal. We must all be like children and in the spirit of the moment I will now eat a Twix bar.

    So at the end of one of Pauls letters when he says things like, so and so says hi, and hey Tim, drink some wine for that tummy ache, thats the Holy word of God?

    You don't know the difference between being wrong and being a liar? A True Believer BB member. <G>

    Bob Hope...

    Your kidding, right? You HAVE to be kidding.

    The Pauline epistles can not be over emphasised.

    The Pauline epistles, in regard to the gosple, are the Gold standard, and Mount Rushmore of the scriptures.

    Because Paul, more than anyone else, is the singuler vessel, whom God chose to revel the monumental, and foundational truthes of the New Covenant.


    This will be much better than my explanation....
