Saul of Tarsus, son of Benjamin Part 11

In concluding this series on Saul of Tarsus, We would like to expand on one final topic. Through out the weeks of this series we kept bringing up two very important scriptures that are in direct conflict with Saul’s teachings.
At the start of this series we addressed where Saul’s roots came from, and the facts of his life as an educated Jew in Law both the Oral (Talmud) and the written (Torah).

Saul being well versed in both tried to use the same principles of the Oral Law (Talmud) much like the Rabbi’s do to this day to claim, that Gentiles are absolved of the 613 Mitzvoth of the written Torah and only need to follow the 7 Noahide Laws. No matter how much we try to fit Gentiles into this category it still rings false. The Gentiles we can place in that category are those who live there life in righteous behavior and ones who do not accept Jesus as their Messiah.

Were we find the conflict is within these two scriptures the first one can be found in Leviticus Chapter 24:22 “Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God.” For further clarification of this topic Adonai expanded this in Numbers 15:15-16 “One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that sojourneth with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD. One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.” In this to us there is no middle ground if one accepts Jesus as the Messiah and the Sacrifice for their Sins. He is the Sin offering before Adonai (The Lord God Most High) and to comply with both of these scriptures means one has accepted to follow the 613 Mitzvoth of Torah period.
Our final analysis concludes with these words spoken by Jesus the Messiah to the people of Israel. Which are found in Matthew Chapter 7:21-23 21 Not every one who is saying to me Lord, lord, shall come into the reign of the heavens; but he who is doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, lord, have we not in thy name prophesied? and in thy name cast out demons? and in thy name done many mighty things? 23 and then I will acknowledge to them, that -- I never knew you, depart from me ye who are working lawlessness. Jesus is clearly telling his Jewish followers to continue being compliant with the 613 Mitzvoth of Torah. In his death he will be there physical Sacrifice before Adonai (The Lord God Most High) for all their sins forever and ever, and that non-compliance still requires repentance and has consequences for those actions.
