Do We Make Too Much of Paul?
by Pastor Ricky Kurth
Here at BBS we recently received yet
another email informing us that we make too much of Paul, and elevate him above
the Lord Jesus. But in exhorting believers to follow Paul as he followed Christ
(I Corinthians 11:1), we are not making too much of Paul, and we can prove it!
Do you remember when the Lord said,
“The scribes and the Pharisees sit in
Moses’ seat: All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and
do…” (Matthew 23:2,3)?
Was the Lord making too much of the
scribes and Pharisees when He told His followers to observe their words?
Hardly! Was He elevating them above Himself? Of course not! He was simply
pointing out that these spiritual leaders should be followed because they
taught the Law of Moses, and the Law was God’s program for that day. Today
God’s program is the program of grace, and it is not making too much of Paul to
point out that he is the apostle to whom the dispensation of grace was
committed (Ephesians 3:1-5).

Believing
Christ DIED, that’s HISTORY.
Believing
Christ DIED for YOU SINS and Rose again that’s SALVATION.
