Understanding The Apostle Paul Teachings And Letters

By George Baker


To comprehend the concepts of early Christianity, there are several places those interested can do so. One of which is a free class "Early Christianity, The Letters of Paul, " which is a free online HarvardX course offered through the edX dot org website. For, the course offers a great deal of information on The Apostle Paul Teachings, transformation and related letters which the apostle wrote during that time.

There are also many resources related to the apostle including several papers which can be found online. Whereas, others prefer a more personal approach through a church or Sunday school program. There are also public and university libraries which offer a number of books related to these teachings.

Individuals who enjoy watching television, film and video can often find a number of programs related to the apostle. For example, there are several videos which are part of a HarvardX course through the edX dot org website. Those interested in more independent studies of the apostle and these teachings, can often check out a variety of materials related to the subject at local college and public libraries.

While a lot of information exist from books, CDs, DVDs, and online video, the information is quite varied depending on the creator. In addition, while there are some representation of the original letters, the text can often be hard to read, much less interpret. As such, to learn the most, it is often advised that interested individuals attend a class, take an online course or visit a local church or synagogue to learn more about Paul and these teachings.

When desiring to learn as much as possible about these teachings, the Bible also holds a great deal of information. Various teachings related to Paul can be found in the books of First and Second Corinthians, First Thessalonians, Galatians, Romans, Philippians and Philemon. While this is the case, the teachings in these scriptures still do not provide proof in an actual living Christ, or the resurrection, crucifixion, or ascension.

As with other artifacts, such as those found related to Moses and the Wilderness, none give proof to the story of Christ and salvation. For, when it comes to Paul, the story the apostle provides is based on a ghostly vision, not a reality. As such, the letters and stories still require Christians to live a faith based religion rather than one based on proof of the existence of Jesus Christ in physical form.

For, when it comes to discovering the truth, the only real truth is that the concept of a higher power or powers is a great mystery. Whether that mystery be accepted on faith or denounced as nonsense. Throughout history, missionaries and others have attempted to share the story of Christ with others as a means toward salvation.

It should be noted that there are even differing beliefs within different sects of the Christian faith. For most, the faith involves believing in the unseen Father, Son and Holy Ghost, or the holy trinity. In most cases, it is believed one must personally and publically accept Jesus Christ as the son of God and personal savior to gain access to heaven and eternal life.
