Christianity between Monotheism and Trinitarianism
The origin of the Christian faith and its original sources
Paulus (Paul the Apostle), of his own will, took the message of Jesus Christ to Europe (Asia Minor and Greece) to put an end to the dispute between him and his Jewish people, who seek to kill him for his apostasy (Acts 13: 44-47), despite christ's affirmation that his message is not universal but limited to the people of Israel (Matthew 15 : 24).
So, the migration of Paulus to Europe led to the confusion between the doctrines of salvation widespread in the Roman Empire and the doctrine of salvation advocated by Jesus Christ.(Matthew 11 : 28).
Accordingly, monotheism became mingled with Greek phylosophical doctrines.
In The Bible in the book Acts:
44 - And on the Sabbath after, almost all the town came together to give hearing to the word of God.
45 - But when the Jews saw such a great number of people, they were full of envy and said evil words against Paul's preaching.
46 - Then Paul and Barnabas without fear said, It was necessary for the word of God to be given to you first; but because you will have nothing to do with it, and have no desire for eternal life, it will now be offered to the Gentiles.
47 - For so the Lord has given us orders, saying, I have given you for a light to the Gentiles so that you may be for salvation to the ends of the earth. (Acts 13: 44-47)
Also, in The Bible in the book Matthew:
24 - But he made answer and said, I was sent only to the wandering sheep of the house of Israel. (Matthew 15 : 24)
In an other verse:
28 - Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11 : 28)
