"But [Carlstadt's] most remarkable position [in 1520]...[was] the word of Paul is not to be put on a level with Christ." Beard Luther (1899)

Answering Critics or Inquiries

You will find various criticisms and my responses under these various links:

  • Scott Schiffres Jr. / Pastor Church of Christ "So you Reject Paul but Accept Jesus?"
  • "Anti-Paulinists and Rebellion of Korah" - disproves claim that rejecting Paul is similar to Rebellion of Korah.
  • Email Dialogues (This includes both inquiries and criticisms, with my answers.)
  • Cross-the-Border site challenging my reading of Romans 7. My reply is here.
  • Mr. Moore liked Jesus's Words Only but in his Amazon review he criticizes my citation to Eisenman. Moore also claims Paul does not fit the Balaam prophecy because Paul helped the poor. I wrote him a reply posted at Amazon. You can find the reply in this sub-page posted here.
  • Mr. Maugans makes a series of silly charges that do not address any substance.  My replies are here.
  • Dulles / Weebly criticism -- argues that if Paul is invalid, then this is the same as arguing the gospels by apostles could be invalid. This nonsensical argument is based upon incorrect assumptions. My reply is here.

Still Waiting For Substantive Criticism As of March 2012

No critic has yet attacked the substance of the claim that Jesus' words are the sole inspired portion of NT scripture. No one has yet addressed my points that: (a) Paul was not a prophet; (b) Paul was not an apostle of Jesus Christ confirmed by either words of Jesus or two witnesses with knowledge, such as the verifiable 12 apostles, but instead the evidence rests upon a self-serving claim of Paul; and (c) Paul abrogated the Law which would be the sine qua non definition of a false prophet in Deut. 13:1-5 besides contradicting Jesus in Matthew 5:17-19. Nor has anyone yet seriously challenged my thesis that Paul is the prophesied Benjamite wolf in Deut. 49:27.

Instead, spurious sniping makes up the criticism so far -- as of March 2012 - six years after JWO was first published. However, iron sharpens iron. I welcome anyone who is willing to show me any errors. I will post your arguments and my response via this page. I will also update JWO or JWOS if anyone can find a flaw. The aim is truth, not defending something previously written.

Blessings,

Doug
