Why Is There Less Focus On Jesus And The Synoptic Gospels? by writeprof(m): 9:58am On Jan 17, 2021
Happy Sunday People, I have observed that many gospel ministers pay more attention to the letters of Apostle Paul and the other disciples more than they do to Jesus Christ teachings in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Acts 1. I think this has caused many confusions in the mind of some believers who will always use Pauline doctrine to back their actions and activities instead of Jesus Christ sayings.
Why this emphasise? I need to learn more from others. Thank you

What I would say is that Jesus is the Master but Paul is just one of His disciples just like the rest of the brethren. So do not worry about what many of the church do, because it would never change that fact.

The teachings of the Master supersede that of any other. At the end we would appear before the Master not any other.

So just ensure that you do what the Master asks of you and it shall be well with you.

That's what I do by the way.

God bless.

Because all of your ministers do not in fact understand the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven, a core message which Paul did not in fact address in any of his letters since his letters were already addressed to those who already believed and had an understanding of the core message itself.

Your ministers are liars who have found a way to latch on to Paul instead of Jesus Christ pretending they do so in the name of God.

Paul was given an assignment to the gentiles of who we are. So Pauline epistles are so important for Christian growth

Acts 13:47
For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

Bros, no be quarrel. Let's learn to be civil at least. You're trying to say something sensible but your approach now makes it lose its sense and meaning. It's well.

What I stated there is a fact. Jesus Christ sent His disciples out to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom of God and not the gospel written in the letters of Paul, which does not even begin to address the detailed contents of the new agreement that is found in the gospels.
And so it follows that anyone who claims to be of Jesus Christ but refuses to obey Jesus Christ, in this case, refuses to teach the detaila of the message taught by Jesus Christ Himself, the message that is indeed the gospel to which we, including Paul, are called to, is a liar and the Truth(Jesus Christ) does not live inside of such a person.
Jesus Christ said that and it remains as simple as that even 2000 years later. What aspect of that knowledge disturbs you or rubs you wrong? undecided
