@realgoodnewsxp: Nobody talks about this passage in church. Paul brags about receiving surpassing revelations, admits a demon was attached to him while receiving them, asks Jesus to remove it and gets told no, and then immediately boasts about it. The demon was supposed to keep him humble. It clearly didn’t work. And his gospel contradicts Jesus on salvation, the law, and forgiveness. But sure — build your entire faith on this guy’s letters.

jackjoe54 :

John 3:16 , ie Salvation by Grace, is consistent with what Paul preached.

David A Chevrusah :

What is AI consistently trying to come against Paul?

megadadaz :

Most scholars teach that the “demon” was his eyesight, damaged on the road to Damascus due to his encounter with Jesus.

Johnny rotten :

To follow Jesus, Paul gave up his prominent identity as a Pharisee, high social standing, comfortable life, wealth, friends, and security, which he considered "loss for the sake of Christ". He willingly sacrificed his religious and social advantages to gain the surpassing worth of knowing Jesus, ultimately counting his former life as worthless in comparison to Christ. Paul was a respected Pharisee with a blameless reputation under Jewish law, a Hebrew of Hebrews, and came from a privileged background. He gave up this esteemed position. Paul relinquished his wealth and comfort. He was willing to give up his friendships and face alienation from family. : He gave up personal security, facing danger, persecution, and hardship, including beatings and relocations. Ultimately, he was willing to give up his very life, as he understood the commitment to mean a constant state of risk for the sake of the gospel. So what was Paul’s agenda? It looks like Paul’s agenda was to follow what Jesus told him to do.

cynibini :

I’m not the biggest fan of Paul but Jacob saw god face to face and got a broken hip I don’t think a thorn means a demon does it say a thorn is a demon

Witchdr :

No proof Paul even existed.

Thorn in the flesh: every human has this.

FISHER KING :

Bro, you definitely cooked everybody on this message. Good fine even though it’s been in the book the entire time somehow it was so overlooked until you just explained it.

Mytiktokliz :

Are you still a Christian?

Healing🦋Awakening🪬 :

I’ve had three NDEs and visited different levels of heaven. Paul reminds me of Muhammad who created their own doctrine and had major demons.

user0772___343 :

nonsense

thatwitchyouknow :

Paul was summoning demons because of Solomonic magic.

Omuni Lihanda :

paul must have been a philosopher.

johnnyantorcha :

No need to fight, nor defend my belief Your actions will be judged Your posts are your works...

rickcoffey5 :

It doesn’t say that was a demon.

gogo Gomes :

Afirst2 :

Is this why so many different Christians movements arose against the Roman Christianity!?

Dan :

Wrong

זָקֵן סוֹפֵר (Zaqen Sofer) :

agreed 👍

Dan :

NaYALaYAH RaYaMaNaD :

Well done

Kevin :

King Saul had a "thorn" also...the one David soothed when he sang to him.

Brendan Fn James :

Paul writes from the first person. And he was a Pharisee…. The same group that was fighting the Sadducees over the Pharisees belief in resurrection…. Which is convenient for Jesus resurrecting…
