Organized religion is a product of Catholicism and Judaism. ...
Judaism is very unorganized, and has been for about 2,000 years.Very different from the Catholic Church. But don't let facts get in your way.

Oh, so Paul did not mean what he wrote to the Phillipeans? Where does Paul give this alternate meaning and clarification? It appears that you are suggesting meanings not found in Scripture, which are in fact contrary to what is plainly written.

I noticed that you started a separate thread called "The Historical Gospel...." A mere two hours after your first reply to me, rather than just reply to my inquiry about what the "Historical Gospel" is. Interesting discussion tactic.

No tactic. Just happened that way.
What work do you think that you can do as a sinner that will please God? Do you believe that God is the minister of sin?
It's been just happening that way hundreds of times over many years. What are the odds of that?
Is someone forcing you to read what I post? If you don't like what I post why don't you put me on your ignore list?
The good work of the kingdom of God is the Gospel of Jesus Christ that justifies the ungodly Romans 4:5 and reconciles us and the world unto God, 2 Corinthians 5:18, 19.
I would cite Ephesians 5:11 but you wouldn't understand it.
The gospel is the good news. I don’t think of news as work.
To love your neighbor and the actions resulting from that love Was what I meant.
Christians often get distracted with pushing minor or unimportant points of doctrine or interpretation while neglecting the more important things.
Law, even God's Law, and organized religion, are not the same thing. Many do not even consider Judaism to be a religion.Both Catholicism and Judaism are law based religions. They are very similar in a lot of different ways.

Interesting perspective.The law is anything that tells you to do something or not to do something. Judaism is the mother of all religions.

Jesus said that He did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I believe that you have misinterpreted what you have read.Jesus fulfilled every jot and tittle of God's Holy Law, Matthew 5:18. The law has been fulfilled and abolished, Ephesians 2:15. The Jewish religion is obsolete. This is why Paul said, "THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH" Romans 1:17 and not by rules, laws or religion.

Incorrect. I am not under the law. The law has not been abolished.His mission was not to abolish the law. His mission was to provide righteousness for fallen man.
The law has been abolished, Colossians 2:14. To be under the law is to be under judgment and condemnation.
