Discovering a Christianity Before Paul #Chrisitan Origins #Founder of Christianity #Paul the Apostle

One often hears that Paul was the "real" founder of Christianity--but what about a fully developed and functioning form of the faith BEFORE Paul, that existed for decades before Paul's letters began to achieve prominence in the mid-second century. In my book, Paul and Jesus, I explore this idea in depth. https://jamestabor.com/books/ Tabor Research Community: I post several things a week related to my own research and the field in general, whether breaking news, book recommendations, videos, and articles. For 2024 I have created a Weekly Q & A Dialogue Space paid members can use for personal exchange where I will respond to messages directly and members can have exchanges among themselves. We also meet monthly in a live Zoom session, which is recorded and uploaded to the site. My Patreon account is not intended for major fund raising, but as a way of identifying a group of really engaged folk, self-selected by paid membership, with whom I can deal more directly. If you take a look at the various membership tiers at my site, you will see that all levels of membership receive the same benefits. Contributions go into a research fund—so you are advancing scholarship. call it my “Tabor Research Community,” you can check it out here: https://www.patreon.com/jamesdtabor On-line Courses: "Jesus & Dead Sea Scrolls” https://mvp-courses.com/tabor-dss Creating Jesus: Gospel of Mark https://mythvisionpodcast.com/firstgospel __________________________________________ The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men gang aft agley מהמלים בקשר את המלים ועל סמך המלים Retired Prof. of Religious Studies/Christian Origins The University of North Carolina at Charlotte About Dr. James D.
