This is why I don't much care to debate with you. Not only do you repeat the themes and the faulty reasoning you employed the first and second time around, but you bring up red herrings and assume extra-biblical notions as fact, in some kind of circular reasoning. I feel like a mosquito in a nudist colony, talking to you. I hardly know where to start!Moses was at a higher level than an apostle, he was a mediator!
Christ is mediator, and apostle!
And he has successors the apostles and they have successors
Otherwise there is no in charge of the government of the church / kingdom
Lk 22:29
Teach all nations, how could the original apostles teach all nations???
Christ is speaking to His apostles
Matt 28:19 I am with you (the apostles) till the end of the world
Acts same
Jn 20:21 apostles have the same authority as Christ, he made apostles so do they
Thanks
You take Jesus command to teach the nations as though it were necessarily directed only at the Apostles and their Successors. You have no warrant for that. Do you also take, "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved", to necessarily mean only that the jailor was to be saved from the penalty of failing to keep his prisoners captive? What does the rest of Scripture have to say about your proof-text?
The same goes for "I am with you". The question, per your logic as you have til now presented it, is not the level of Moses' status, but whether he was an Apostle.
