Answering Critics or Inquiries

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

• Ketch - Argues in effect, 'If you are teaching on your website, aren't you being a teacher when you claim Jesus is the sole teacher?'
• A.P. Holding - a hostile defamor who in the end agrees with me Paul is not a prophet. Da!
• Church History 101 - a critic who accuses me of misleadingly using Tertullian from 207 AD to assert Tertullian challenged whether Paul was a true apostle, and the accuracy whether Tertullian called Paul the "Apostle of the Heretics."
• Scott Schiffres Jr. / Pastor Church of Christ "So you Reject Paul but Accept Jesus?"
• "Anti-Paulinists and Rebellion of Korah" - my article disproving critic's 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 and my view the KJV wrongly translated Pascha in Greek as "Easter" in Acts. 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 May 2013

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 made an effort to disprove 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. I have contended that instead the evidence for Paul's supposed apostleship rests solely upon a self-serving claim of Paul. No one has seriously disputed that  (a) Paul abrogated the Law; and (b) that the Law and Prophets taught anyone doing so is a false prophet in Deut. 13:1-5, and also contradicts Jesus in Matthew 5:17-19. Nor has anyone yet seriously challenged my thesis that Paul is the prophesied Benjamite wolf in Genesis 49:27.

Instead, spurious sniping makes up the criticism so far -- as of May 2013 - 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 substantive flaw. The aim is truth, not defending something previously written.

Blessings,

Doug
