The False Teachings of the Apostle Paul, Part 1 – Disc 1 – Dr. Ray Hagins

Question: Did the Apostle Paul offer sacrifices in the book of Acts or later? I have heard he did, but can’t find it.

If he did, please provide a Scripture reference. Thanks!

Answer: It is not written in the New Testament at all. It is rightfully inferred. How? Jews traditionally under the Law offered sacrifices. Even Jesus did this!!!! He had to keep the law up until his death. Then the New Testament became effective.

Paul said he was a devout Jew (the Book of Acts bears this out) and as such he would have kept the letter of the law which includes sacrifices. AFTER his conversion, there is no reason to assume he continued the tradition of sacrifices.

Question: Where is the toot notes: Ephesians 1:7-8 Who did the apostle Paul say God made His grace to abound to?

Answer: In Him –

In Christ, or in union with Christ (see The New Covenant and Oneness with Jesus Christ and Covenant Oneness Notes), we have or more literally “are having” this blessing. It is not merely in a blessing that exist as a future possession (it will be that also as discussed below and see He 9:12-note), but it is ours by virtue of our faith in Christ. The redemption is “in Christ” not only as the source but also as the sphere in which they (and we) live (we have obtained redemption [through the payment to set the captives free] in Him, in Christ, and we now and forever live in the “atmosphere” of the light, truth and power of that same eternal redemption [He 9:12-note]. It’s as if the “redemption” Christ has provided is now the “air” in which we as believers live and breath and have our being, if that helps you understand the picture of “in Him”.)

I think it’s him because his head is shaved.
Does The Bible say if Jesus ever shaved His head? Maybe it’s Him instead of Paul.

Answer: Superstition is not supported by true scriptural reasoning..
There is no picture of the Apostle Paul. And if there were, so what?
Christians are supposed to be walking by faith, not by sight. Faith backed up by concrete evidence. Idolatry is a work of the flesh (demonic).
