Their discoveries could not have been satisfactory. They began to teach the brethren, saying, except ye be circumcised after the custom of Moses, ye cannot be saved. They could not go far in such a course without meeting Paul. His answer to them, and his indignation at their teaching are more clearly brought to view in his allusion to the subject in the Epistle to the Galatians (2: 1 He declared in substance that what they taught was not the Gospel as he understood it, and had preached it. He did not consider him self an apostle of the church of Jerusalem; his appointment and authority he had from Christ himself. Nor were the con tions at Antioch and in Asia Minor to be in subjection to e Jerusalem Church; such an affiliation and subordination were not in the least necessary to the unity of the church of Christ; her centre was not on earth but in heaven, whither Christ had gone, and while she held fast by her Divine Head, she was essentially one, and needed no other unity. Such was Paul's doctrine; and the Christians of Antioch were with him. It was squarely Opposed to the views of the Hebrew Christians. Both parties stood their ground, and there was no small dissension and questioning. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
