Who Do You Give Credit To: Apostle Peter Or Paul! by Nobody: 5:11pm On Mar 25, 2007
who would you give credit for the advancement of Christianity? Apostle Peter or Apostle Paul!

1 Corinthians 3:5-8

'Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.'

Most excellent response.  Even though all of this antagonist babaearly's posts lack personal conviction and are unworthy of any intelligent consideration or debate.

While no credit belongs to anyone in delivering the gospel, I do believe that the apostle Paul accomplished more because the Lord used him more. Despite that fact neither Paul, nor Peter would have wanted us to think that either's ministry was to be more credited. His ministry was far different from that of the apostle Peter only in terrms of its extensiveness.

I believe you already know that much.

Bless.

The humility of a fruitful servant of Christ:

For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that
commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing
themselves among themselves, are not wise
. 2 Cor. 10:12.

I figure that was what you meant, but I believe its the word credit that is posing a problem. Your statement suggests it is either one or the other that deserves the credit, when in truth and in fact both can be credited. I do believe though that Paul was more extensive in his ministry and evangelism.

Regards.
