I don't buy that Paul stuff.
Yeah...what did the Apostle Paul know? (He was only taught individually by Jesus for three years.)
That aside, do you buy that Jesus stuff:
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned."
18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20)
According to Paul.
I thought I said I did.
According to Scripture
Agree to disagree. Constantine ok'd the biblical canon. Constantine was the dictator that brought about the Dark Ages. He adopted Christianity and used it as a weapon. In the words of Mormon historian James Talmage (I'm not a Mormon, but Talmage nails the history here):
It was Constantine that OK'd the letters of Paul to be included in the Bible. It was Constantine who invited idolatry into "the church", so it's no wonder he was keen to have Paul define Christ's doctrine, no matter how ridiculous it sounded when held up to the four gospels. If you think Paul's letters got it right, I think you need to spend a little more time reading Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Idolatry is idolatry is idolatry.
