Paul’s gospel was that Christ died for our sins and rose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15.1-4). Tim: You're right. Tim: And that's because, the poem goes on, "he is before all things and in him." Tim: Oh, yeah. Jon: The man, the Son of Man. Tim: Oh, Israel is the son of God. Let's take to heart this description from Paul and remind ourselves today that were it not for Christ's agape love toward us, we would not be able to offer it faithfully to others. This episode was edited and produced by Dan Gummel, music by Tae the Producer and the intro music is by the band Tents. That's true in ancient Greek and Roman temples too. Jon: You know, when you said, "One plus one equals one," that made me think of is just infinity plus infinity equals infinity. Jon: But we don't use the word firstborn or son very often— Tim: Yeah, we never would. He takes one title for the God of Israel from the Shema and he applies it to the Father. This week you will be reading Acts chapters 9-15 to get a historical perspective on Paul’s life and writings. Basically, the point is, is the gospels are coming into existence in this very period when Paul's actively writing his letters. Its focus was not upon the identity of Christ but upon the work of Christ. Thus, Paul’s rivals held that his converts were not yet among the people of God. Hear, O Israel: The Lord is our God, the Lord is one. Tim: But that is in essence what he's doing. It's very specifically the divine name is the God of Israel. This is what's great is the Shema, which is the ancient Jewish prayer, "Hear O Israel, Yahweh is our God, Yahweh is one.” In context, the one is there he is our one God in distinction to the Canaanites many gods whose land we're going into. The language of faith is ubiquitous in Paul’s letters and has a great range of meaning. "For in him, it was the Father's good pleasure for all of his fullness to dwell.". That is the view that he accepts as OBVIOUS and AGREED UPON between himself and the Corinthians. Tim: The Father, from whom are all things and we exist for him. But instead what he says is things like this, which ends at mostly the same place. It factors into something, like some formulas and things. Tim: But he doesn't. For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, 'Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'”. The same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him for - quotation from the Old Testament book of Joel - everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Jon: Well, no, I can't explain infinity. Paul’s gospel (Romans 2.16, 16.25), was different from the gospel of Jesus and the Twelve. We did an episode on this about how to read the Gospels or what are the Gospels. Can I buy some meat? We then turned to the Gospels and looked at how Jesus and the Spirit are related to God's complex identity. You get every single number, which is infinity. Because he doesn't specify. In this grand vision of the redemption of the created order, Paul shows how deeply he believed in one God, maker of heaven and earth, and in the cosmic importance of his Son, Jesus Christ. For the chronology of Paul’s ministry, there are also some extra-biblical data: According to Josephus, Herod Agrippa I was made ruler of...

Tim: Notice in 1 Corinthians 8, it's just one verse. Jon, you passed.Jon: Yaay, I've been paying attention. Tim: If you're looking at it from that lens, what was written first, the letters of Paul are the earliest Christian literature that exist. This is just one example. Jon: But in a metaphoric way, did God give birth to Jesus? Jon: The so-called idols, so-called gods. The entry on the divine name in the dictionary of ancient biblical Hebrew has a whole long entry on every single piece of evidence for the pronunciation of the divine name. Since those who partake of the Lord’s Supper participate in the body and blood of Christ, they cannot also participate in the meat and drink at an idol’s table (1 Corinthians 10:14–22). And since the Gospels were written 40 years after the events, they have the most developed views of Jesus." With this logic, he can fit both Jesus and God the Father in the Shema comfortably. Like one verse in the New Testament. He's the exalted human, Son of Man, and the wisdom of God and word by whom it was all created. Jon: His point here is that both Jews and Gentiles are under the same to the same family name? It's not just some cute little thing to think about. whether thrones or dominions He says, "For us, there's one God, that's the Father and there's one Yahweh, Lord, Jesus Messiah." He believed in a "spiritual" body/entity that resided in heaven, not on earth. Tim: Here's something significant and it's counterintuitive at first when you hear it. In part one (0:00-7:25), Tim explains that Paul’s writings are actually chronologically written earlier than the Gospels, even though they come toward the end of our modern Bibles. Muslim views.

He's the image. Jon: So you take an infinity like every odd set of numbers that is infinity, you add that to every even set of numbers that is infinity, and what do you get? Tim: Correct. Jon: Is he using Lord as master or Lord as Yahweh? The materials in the Gospels predate Paul that the final literary shape of the Gospels pause to him. The physical universe also needed to be freed from “bondage to decay.” The fact that individual believers could escape from sin did not free the entire world. That's all happening right from the very beginning. "Having made peace through the cross with things on Earth or things in heaven." From whom are all things. In Galatians and Romans the language of “righteousness by faith” yields to the language of being in Christ. In human terms, of course, there's procreation involved, because that's by nature of the case. This is the meaning of “justification” or “righteousness” by faith, not by law, in Galatians and Romans. And Paul compares this salvation to the example of the faith without works righteousness God reckoned for Abraham(Rom.4:1-5). There are transcriptions of it. Now we have two infinities. And now in this episode, we're going to turn to the Apostle Paul. That's exactly what you're seeing here. Tim: Visible and invisible.
