How shall we understand the apostle Paul? It seems his doctrines opposed that of other apostles. Or does it? Can we make sense of it? The Apostle Paul's writings are often quoted by many who think we can ignore all Biblical law, which is not a modern trend. It started even in the first century. The apostle Peter had to write to the churches to beware of misunderstanding Paul's epistles, to their demise. as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable pervert, as also they do the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction).
(2 Peter 3:16, MKJV) This book provides background information that will help to understand what Paul was talking about. The following chapters help to get a clearer picture of what the apostle Paul meant in his epistles:
- Chapter one looks at the misunderstood scriptures and some that seem to contradict each other.
- A look into Paul's early history helps to understand his experience as a young man, and how he misunderstood scripture.
- After a dramatic experience, Pual reconsidered his understanding, leading to his conversion and repentance. What was his conversion all about? What changed? And what had e repented of? These are important factors to keep in mind when reading about his experience and his writings to the churches of God.
- What was Paul's specific mission in Christ? He was called to fulfill a specific role. The Holy Spirit groomed him to fulfill his mission in Christ. Chapter 4 takes a careful look at his position in the growing Church.
- Paul began to meet serious opposition which he had to deal with. In this chapter, we see the specific role players and their arguments against Paul's work in Christ.
- Did Paul do away with the Ten Commandments? This is a very serious question. The salvation of millions of Christians is at stake! Chapter 6 answers this crucial question. It also deals with other difficult and misunderstood concepts, such as faith versus works, repentance, grace, and justification.
- In this chapter we take a serious look at what was happening in the growing and expanding Church, and the detail of some falling away, and the two main aspects of their falling away from the true Gospel.
- In the final chapter the misunderstanding concerning observing times and Sabbath keeping is resolved.
