I do this because THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE.is one person and its Jesus Christ. All the rest are ordinary messengers.
"I take what Jesus says first. I take what the Apostles say second."
You believe that prophets like Moses gave us the Word of God and if so, was it less than
the Word of God from Jesus when He spoke?
If you think Jesus is greater than Moses I agree with you, but that isn't what I'm asking
you! What I'm asking you is God's Word is it less than because it comes from Moses than
it does when it comes from Jesus? The source is either God or its not, if God gave Moses
a truth to tell us than how could that truth be anything less than from God if Jesus spoke?
The same things would be just as true with Peter, James, and Paul and so on, if they gave
us the Word of God than it is something Jesus said we need to live by is it not? There isn't
any classification of the Word of God that is less than any other Word of God, or is there
in your opinion since you put the Apostles scriptures (Word of God) below Jesus?
Matthew 4:4
Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
According to Jesus we need to live by every word that comes from the mouth of God.
