About this book
The Origin of Paul's Religion is presented as lectures delivered at Union Theological Seminary in Virginia, with J. Gresham Machen named as author. The discussion finds no evidence that the words under consideration resulted in revolutionary practice on the part of Jesus, and gives definite reason to suppose he observed the ceremonial Law as contained in the Old Testament. The disciples are described as continuing to observe Jewish fasts and feasts, and as being outwardly loyal Jews.
The argument makes Paul's status as a true follower of Jesus conditional upon Jesus being a divine Redeemer who came from heaven to die for human sins. The argument denies that Paul was a true follower of Jesus if Jesus was merely a revealer of the fatherhood of God.
