Please fill me in. Why the lack of respect for the Work of Paul?
I suspect that a good number of people reject Paul’s writings because he cuts to the deep quickly. The first three chapters of Romans leave no doubt that we are all sinners. Religious, non religious, gay, straight, man, woman, Jew, non Jew, everyone is a sinner.
In general we don’t like to think of ourselves as sinners. We like to view ourselves as OK. Like Crocodile Dundee said, “God and me, we be mates” (it’s the other guy that’s the sinner).
