Ah yes, the Apostle Paul would be such an authority on the matter, a former Pharasee who never met Jesus or his handpicked Apostles who just happened to have a “vision” of Christ pretty much confirming “No, you guys, what I actually meant was this.” And managed to hijack the religion to serve the needs of the rich.
Hijacked it for the Greeks is more like it. But, frankly, Jesus’s actually apostles were very much failing pretty spectacularly to spread the sect among the Jews so, eh.
You think Jesus meant we should go and sin as much as we like because he paid for it? Does that work for murder or theft?
Paul also went to Jerusalem to visit Peter and James to make sure he was teaching the right thing. Probably there he received what he would later pass on, such as the early creed in 1 cor 11:23.
Yeah, sure… maybe. But it’s all nonsense and has nothing to do with reality. In the actual world we live in laws apply, as well as a good possibility of getting your ass beat for stealing someone’s stuff
I don’t seal because it is immoral, not because I’ll get caught. If we only go by the laws of the country, there’d be no way to say a law is immoral. Or hate speech would be fine as it’s covered under the first amendment. I hold to morality not just the law
