Discovering The Apostle Paul Teachings And Letters

By George Baker


To understand the early concepts of Christianity, one must first understand the apostles. More specifically, one must be able to comprehend The Apostle Paul Teachings and writings. For, the apostle was the first to transition from the Jewish faith to that of a Christian one.

The apostle did not start out as a Christian. Paul was actually born into the Jewish faith and became a Pharisee. It was only after a mystical vision of Christ, having risen from the dead that the Jewish Pharisee became to believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. A belief which many believe to be the first transformation of a Jew into a Christian and the beginning aspects of the Christian faith.

For those who enjoy film and television, there are also a few different series related to the apostle. In most cases, these come in sets with a number of different volumes related to different apostles and areas of the Cristian faith. Although, there are some which compare and contrast Judaism and Christianity though a look at Paul and his early letters to the Church.

While the information can be quite varied, there are only a few actual letters in the archives. While this is the case, the fact that a few original letters, while difficult to read, are often considered proof of the apostle's existence on earth. Still, the letters do give insight to the fact that Paul actually had a vision which resulted in a spiritual transformation from one belief to another.

When desiring to learn as much as possible about these teachings, the Bible also holds a great deal of information. Various teachings related to Paul can be found in the books of First and Second Corinthians, First Thessalonians, Galatians, Romans, Philippians and Philemon. While this is the case, the teachings in these scriptures still do not provide proof in an actual living Christ, or the resurrection, crucifixion, or ascension.

Other artifacts, such as those found from the time of Moses and the Wilderness also provide proof in the existence of Moses; However, do not necessarily prove in the parting of the red sea or other activities associated with the time. For, as with Paul, these aspects are often those which must be accepted on faith, especially by those subscribing to the Christian faith.

Ultimately, each individual must find the truth that aligns with personal belief systems. Most often, these beliefs have been taught down through generations based on past family religious ties and beliefs. However, in some cases, there are those who set out on a spiritual journey to find one's own truth based on life experience.

For those subscribing to the Christian faith, this is often one related to Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Most beliefs in this regard are based on these early teachings of Paul that Jesus was born, died and rose again as proved by the visions and letters of the apostle. Whereas, the Holy Spirit is that which washes over and cleanses one of earthly sins once an individual becomes a believer and follows these and other related teachings.
