Paul, Apostle or Apostate?

"Those who are called Ebionites . . . use the Gospel according to Matthew only, and repudiate the Apostle Paul, maintaining that he was an apostate from the law. " (Irenaeus, Adversus haereses (Against Heresies), 180 A.D.)

We believe that even though Paul watered down the pure Nasarene Way and created a hybrid religion between it and the pagan Roman myths, he was nevertheless inspired to do so by the Heavens. The Temple needed a porch and Paul was called to build it. The problem arises when one confuses the "porch" for the Inner "Holy of Holies". In the Beni-Amin world view, the following structure of the truth prevails:

• Paul -     Porch of the Temple - gentile gospel.
• Peter -   Holy Place of the Temple - Nasarene gospel.(communal and cooperative moshavs) Moshe (Moses).
• James the Righteous - Most Holy Place of the Temple - Ebionite gospel (monastic disciplines). Elijah.
• John the Beloved - Holy of Holies - Gnostic gospel (personal knowing). Yeshua.

Was Paul an Apostle?

The Problem of Paul - excerpt from: The Mythmaker: Paul and the Invention of Christianity by Hyam Maccoby, a Talmudic scholar. The author of this article contends that Paul was not a trained Pharisee as is claimed by the New Testament record. This article is considered interesting because it lends support to the B'nai-Amen position that the New Testament is not a reliable historical document, but rather, a fabricated account by non Essene "Christians".
