HHMI ~ Ephesians 2 & Colossians 2 ~ Pt 1 ~ Did Paul Teach and Follow the Torah?

Charges are brought against Paul that he is not following the Torah and that he is teaching others not to follow the Torah. In the book of Acts chapter 21, 22, 23, 24, 25,26, and 28 is Paul REJECTS these charges and claims and he stands FIRMLY on the fact that He DOES keep the Torah of Yeshua by the Holy Spirit. Paul rejects this claim that he does not follow Torah, and in Romans 3:31, he says both Jew and non Jew ARE to follow the Torah. In Romans 7:22, he states that he follows the Torah by the Holy Spirit. In Romans 7:25, he says that with his mind, his will, and his determination, he seeks to follow the Torah of God. So, how is that traditional Christianity has the viewpoint that Paul taught believers in Yeshua that they are NOT supposed to follow the Torah? The bible definition of sin is found in 1 John 3:4: Whosoever commits sin transgresses also the Torah: for sin is the transgression of the Torah. Sinning = transgressing the Torah If we should not sin, and if we are to be holy, then we should be following the Torah! Torah means teachings/instructions of God Torah = entire bible from Genesis to Revelation We are doing a study of Torah and the New Testament. This two part teaching focuses in on Ephesians 2 and 2 Corinthians 2. This session provides a background and context for that study.
