Where do you think Paul contradicts Jesus?

I'd have thought this would have answered your question:
"That you believe Paul is a testament, no doubt, to your desire for cheap salvation which ran contrary to the teachings of Jesus."

Jesus taught man must follow the law. Paul said man was not under the law. Jesus’s followers felt so strong about this that they wanted to place Paul on trial as a Covent breaker.
Originally posted by Thomas LaveryOn the contrary, Paul taught that man is indeed held to the standard of God's law: "As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law" (Rom. 2:12). Those who accused Paul of teaching his followers to abuse grace, e.g., "let us do evil that good may come" (Rom. 3:8), did so slanderously.

"For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the Spirit" (Romans 8:3-4).

The consensus of all is that there are no contradictions and even those which may be construed as contradictions are easily remedied. I really wonder what he shall say.

It doesn't. It's not there. But ToOne will conjure it up somewhere in his rigid mind like a desperate mirage of water to quench his thirst for Paul bashing. He'll find the one verse somewhere that he thinks he can grind his axe on. It's not even a bet.
It's entir ...[text shortened]... ther any more?)
