St. Paul Saul of Tarsus : (d.67?) Saul of Tarsus (q.v.) was a Jewish tent-maker who regarded Jesus a threat to Pharisaic Judaism (see Pharisees); encouraged by Saul’s zeal the chief Rabbi of Jerusalem sent him to Damascus to fight off Christian missionaries enticing Jews. Instead, he was stopped on the way with a blinding Light & asked him “Why persecutest thou Me?” Intrigued, Saul lived among Christians of Damascus, converted to Christianity, became Paul & set off to convert Jews of Tarsus, Antioch, Jerusalem, & other Jewish colonies – thus became the greatest Apostle to the Gentiles i.e., of heathens & pagans not yet converted. His most successful stay was in Ephesus from where he had to go to Corinth via Macedonia to help the embattled Christians there. In his last five years he lived mostly in Rome, where he & St. Peter were killed on the same day by Emperor Nero. His epistles are the earliest & most powerful Christian theological writings for which he is sanctified as Fountainhead of Christianity & depicted with the Sword of the Martyr.

It also suggests that St. Paul had this meaning in mind.

And then both St. Paul and Teilhard... "God-intoxi- Page 16 cated". Actually, Spinoza 4 claimed his system to be a logical working out of St. Paul's mighty experiential utterance, "In Him we live, and move, and have our being" (Acts XVII28), an utterance much favoured by Teilhard but linked by St. Paul with an assertion which he declares to be a quotation from an earlier non-Christian Greek poet (Ibid.) .

... The people, however, defied the order and protested, 'You better kill us all." The background to this act can be traced to the fact that the Jesuit missionaries had built in 1728 the Ghurch of St. Paul adjoining the Vedapuriswar temple.

In passing, we may remember that St. Paul takes Adam to be "one man" - a single... chief authority, the Pauline Epistles? Rideau writes: "Not being really familiar with the whole of St, Paul, he paid too little attention to his description of man's fundamental cleavage and the deviation of his impulses." 6 - "It is interesting that Teilhard's quotations from St. Paul are chiefly taken from humanist or cosmic passages...rather than from the dialectic of the first chapter of... and which, in his eyes, would be fulfilled by the Pleromatic Divinity visioned by St. Paul as the Christ of the Parousia.

Science... if even so marked a love-mystic as John of the Cross could bring in "fusion", the two types of pantheism must really be two aspects of the same pantheistic truth. Further, when we turn to St. Paul's own Epistles, do we have only a phrase like the one from I Corinthians 15:28 which characterises the Parousiac culmination and which Teilhard tries to press into the service of Christian orthodoxy... orthodoxy and oppose to a straightforward pantheistic turn like "God is all"? Do we not have also the phrase in Colossians 3:11: " Ta panta kai en passi Christos ", "Christ is all and in all"? If St. Paul is to be used in a discussion of pantheism, surely a Christo-logy with a pantheistic background or basis may be deduced here, and then Teilhard's favourite phrase merely promises in an overt realisation ...
... two restrictive connections he gave to it. First, the conventional notion of cosmi-cality which goes with all ideas of Godhead and with which Teilhard often tried to identify it in order to link to St. Paul and St. John the " 'new' Christianity" 3 he was fighting for. Secondly, the irrational idea that the cosmic Christ was necessarily a consequence and extension of the historic Jesus rather than the...

This surprised exclamation from a... thinker past or present. If, according to Teilhard, Christ's cosmicality can become a reality only when modern evolutionism is accepted, it is impossible for his cosmic Christ to figure in whatever St. Paul or contemporary religion posits in non-scientific terms. By insisting on evolutionism, Teilhard makes himself irrevocably unorthodox. As for the historic Jesus in this context, his being subsequent ...

Teilhard has love only for the ever-present Cosmic Christ who, according to him, is preached by St. Paul. Thirdly, this Pauline Christ as understood by Teilhard and as understood by the Church are two different Godheads.

Yet we should read our holy books again, but read them without passion, without egoistic interest; almost two thousand years ago, St. Paul said, "Multifariam, multisque modis olim Deus loquens in prophetis, novissime diebus istis locutus est nobis in Filio" (several times and in several ways God has spoken through the prophets, but now ...

"Christ on the scale of and at the head of creation". 1 According to Teilhard, such an exclusive regard is "the most essential aim and criterion of Christian orthodoxy" 2 and, "since St. John and St. Paul, the fundamental rule of theology". 3 The divine power so figured is the Cosmic or Universal Christ and, naturally, his central function is related to the cosmos with whose space-time he is coextensive... scientific view of the world as evolutionary. The concepts of evolution are all in all to Teilhard and apart from them Christianity must fail and even "the most magnificent cosmic attributes lavished by St. Paul on the risen Christ" 15 be inexplicable and unconvincing: "Christianity takes on its full value when extended (as I find it rewarding to do) to cosmic dimensions." 16 The only nexus with orthodoxy... oriental 'pantheism'" as the factors introducing the universal aspect of his religion. The Christian contribution is restricted to "personalism". Teilhard is often disposed to talk of the Christianity of St. Paul and St. John as supplying the universe-ingredient to make up his Universal Christ. Why has he not talked here of Pauline or Johannine "totality" plus the usual personalism of the Christ preached in ...
