Paul and "the world" want religion to be a push-button mechanism which saves. Instead, it's about realities in minds, which require correcting.

Christ taught the path to "eternal life," which means getting connected to objective reality through truth.

Christ said his entire purpose was to "testify to the truth" (John 18:37), because truth will set people free from sin (John 8:32). Rationality is how truth is produced and used. (Which is not atonement ending sin on the cross.) Sin—The World's View of it

Christ's central teaching is that humans have a responsibility to solve human problems (Mat 25:31-46)(Luke 10:30-36).

Christ taught personal relationships. Paul did not.

Morality is that which sustains life. Life is ordered existence. Order requires logical relationships between all realities. Rationality and knowledge are required.

Getting saved means people have to get along with each other for eternity. Christ taught how to do that. He taught how to overcome sin through a path of constructivity (Mat 7:14).

The purpose of material life is to overcome sin. Nothing but truth ends sin. Usually, no purpose for life is assumed in theologies.

Life exists in a reality medium. Sin exists in a force medium. Getting saved is moving out of the force medium and into the reality medium.

Rationality is the basis of life. Sin destroys rationality. The most direct and visible test of sin is absence of rationality. Satan Runs the World

Sin separates corrupters from objective reality and subjectivizes their existence. Superstition in Paul's Theology

Social standards have shifted, as satan acquires more control over society. Several decades ago, the starting point of social assumptions was that purposes and standards should be constructive. Now the starting point of social assumptions is that winning through gimmickry is the superior and proper goal, and it must replace moral purposes and standards. It's the same as the Nazi standard. At the root of Nazism was the assumption that morality is for fools, and sin is the only responsible way to run a society.
 

 

Fundamentalists justify their sin by saying people are saved by faith, not by works. Then they are obsessed by works, often saying that abortionists, homosexuals and atheists are going to go to hell (because of their works). They aren't talking about faith; they are talking about works.
 

All corrupters promote bigotry, elitism, selfishness and domination. The result is a war against the lower classes. In Christianity, Paul’s religion justifies that standard in total contempt for everything Christ taught.

Fundamentalist Christians say Christ saves, while they get all of their information from Paul—all of it, none from Christ. Yet Christ said it is only through his truth that anyone is saved (John 5:24).

They rationalize their end point by starting with the claim that the Bible is the infallible word of God, while it has Paul’s writing within it. Fraud. The Bible is an aggregate of writings put together by a bunch of frauds.
 

While New Age is about energy flows determining feel-good states, Christ's teaching is about reality, as truth and knowledge, defining the moral basis of eternal life.

1.  Objectivity is essential to overcome and avoid sin. Subjectivity in that area promotes sin. Sin is promoting subjectivity in the wrong places and wrong ways. You don't have a right to decide whether to sin; that's why morality is not subjective. See Science and Religion.

2.  Morality is not about pleasing anyone; it's about overcoming corruption in one's own mind.

3.  Sin is caused by stimulus-response mechanisms which develop in the mind related to pride, jealousy, selfishness, bigotry, etc. It is a way that seems right but leads to death (Prov 14:12), because psychological conditioning does that.

4.  Elitism and status are driving forces of sin. People are taught by implication and example to seek them. Christ taught how to be moral; Paul did not. Quoting Paul

5.  Being saved (or born again) is not an event; it's a process of overcoming sin. (Mat 7:14)

6.  Faith does not save without a path (Mat 7:14), because sin destroys faith, and overcoming sin is a difficult and slow process. Lightning certainly didn't do it for Paul.

7.  Humane poverty with moral concerns is the clearest form of the path to life which is hard to find and follow (Mat 7:14). Such a path creates constructivity, which corrects the subconscious forces which drive sin.

8.  At the end, the saved are separated from the unsaved on the basis of good deeds (who fed the hungry,etc.) and nothing else (Mat 25:31-46).

9.  Fundamentalists claim that fixing God through atonement was the answer, and now he blesses their sin and makes their words infallible. They preach only to convince people not to do the good works which Christ taught. Blood is not Atonement
