There has been dispute over Paul’s continuation of Jesus’ teachings. A scholar wrote “Jesus came preaching the kingdom of god, but all Paul left us was the Church.” This could be understood as Paul not following the teachings of Jesus. This becomes very clear as you compare the writings of Paul to the teachings in the Gospel. There are more than a few examples where Paul completely goes against the words of Jesus. Whether it be his teaching of the old law, or how one achieves salvation, Paul’s words just do not follow those of Jesus. This could be attributed to interpretation, or just trying to preserve the Christian religion so that it could survive its early days. Whatever the reasons may be, the differences need to be addressed.
