He was more than that. He was considered a true profit of God. So his law was also the law. He was very clear about this.
He considered himself a true Prophet, I think you mean? Yeah. Where does Paul say that he's a "profit"? He calls himself a teacher, preacher, and pastor. That's different. The books that you are thinking of in the New Testament are letters that were written by Paul to early churches. They aren't on par with the gospels. And, they weren't canonized until MANY, MANY years after Paul's death. I mean like...300 years. That's a long time.
Beyond that, Paul never even met Jesus Christ in the flesh, and wasn't one of his disciples. Paul's letters reflect Paul's beliefs.
Only to those who would deny the laws of Christ, period.
Where did Christ mention that being anti-gay is a law of his?
It not only mentions what marriage is under God, but why he created man and woman and not same sex partners.
Actually, that passage deals with divorce and the hypocrisy of the Jews in that era, treating their wives shamefully, giving them letters of divorcement that dishonored them (and left them in poverty, at the mercy of their male relatives), and pretending to still be righteous before God after mistreating their own wives.
I'm sensing some similarities here with the modern pharisees, to be blunt.
rof It's hard to call yourself a lover of God if you can't manage to love other humans.
I am a true follower and see the truth of Gods law. You are an unbeliever who does not care and want only to corrupt that which is pure.
I'm a former Sunday School teacher who was taught to "rightly divide the word of truth." I don't know whose law you want to follow, but it isn't Christ's law.
The longer I live, the more I see truth in this thought: The God you choose to worship says more about you than it does about God. If you hate gays, you're likely to latch onto a version of God that hates gays.
I don't think that's reflective of the teachings of Christ, though.
