Continues from
the earlier post -
Paul called
himself father and that wrong act of his, introduced the post of
Father and Pope in Church and people were asked to give their
confession to him, an ordinary person (1 Corinthians 4:15-21). Paul
also declared him as apostle of Jesus; that is wrong technically
because he was not initiated by Jesus. Many extravagant claims were
also made by him (read 1 Corinthian) and he was instrumental for
deviation of Roman Catholic Church from the original teachings of
Jesus. This habit of deviating from the teachings of righteousness
was further exploited and continued by later priests and Popes. This
is how wrong traditions were introduced knowingly or unknowingly in
Roman Catholic Church and the institute of Church began to deviate
from the original teachings of Jesus. We see that during preaching
teachings of Jesus many disciples of Jesus and later followers began
to introduce their own ideas and thoughts in the name of Jesus and
that began to change the very form of teachings of Jesus. For
example, idolatry was never condemned by Jesus, in fact he never said
anything against it but during preaching the teachings of Jesus, Paul
condemned idolatry. (1
Corinthians 5:10,
11) Jesus also never mentioned any objection to
circumcision, a common practice among Jews but his disciples showed
objection to it through their teachings and as a result, that
practice did not continue in Christianity. Observation suggests that
Roman Church priests were against that practice as it has a dubious
origin in Jew mythology that says, a female demon, Lilith, who haunts
male Children and makes them impotent. By early circumcision, they
believed that Lilith is discouraged from catching on male children.
Romans did not inherit that mythology and so it was removed from
Christian practice as it did not fit in Roman culture. All such
changes were introduced into Christian practice, which do not have
any place in original teachings of Jesus. In this way over the
period, Roman Catholic Church moved away extensively from the
original Jesus. This is how chaff of Church teachings was collecting
around the Kernel of original teachings of Jesus.
1
Corinthians 7:18
Was a man already
circumcised when he was called? He should not be uncircumcised. Was a
man uncircumcised when he was called? He should not be circumcised.
1
Corinthians 7:19 Circumcision is nothing and
uncircumcised is also nothing. Keeping God’s commands is what
counts.
Paul was
instrumental for practice of celibacy among clergymen and nuns; it is
given in 1 Corinthian 7:25-38. That was never suggested by Jesus to
his preachers whom he sent to spread the message of God.
1
Corinthians 7:25
Now about virgins: I
have no command from the Lord,
but I give a judgment
as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy.
By this, Paul
admits that what he is suggesting through his sermons is his personal
whim and nothing to do with Jesus.
