@lizzie @sathariel I think history has done James the just a disservice. hes even called James the lesser but he seems to have been a really outstanding person.

@lizzie @sathariel I mean divinely revealed law is divinely revealed law, whether or not you consider him to be the essential priest/offering/Logos/law, what have you. I guess a big difference is how he was beyond sin and preexistent. what do you think of the early church prohibiting blood, strangled animals, and food offered to idols?

@lizzie @sathariel I see jesus as a lawgiver in his teachings, even though he represents divine mercy more than divine justice.

@lizzie @sathariel lizzie do you have any interest in mystical christian prayer as a means of cleaving to God? like have you read the interior castle, the dark night of the soul, or the cloud of unknowing?

@lizzie @sathariel can't believe I know both things youre referring to, with jesus its when he talks about marriage and divorce and with paul its when he circumcizes timothy himself.

middle english is incredibly readable and a joy to read with modern spelling and a glossary.

@sathariel not really, jesus said not one jot or tiddle would be removed from the law and that he came to fulfill the law and the prophets. also two of his main teachings were the importance of love for God and love for neighbor, both of which are from the law. however paul in many of his writings spoke ill of the law (there is support for him being nomian and support for him being antinomian). also theres a rich jewish tradition back to the prophets of God saying "I don't want your freakin sacrifices, be good and pray to me", more or less lol
