The Early Source of the Jesus Movement

Early Paul would be the earliest form that we have of the Jesus movement. He says things like in his early letters, though we once knew Christ after the flesh, he was a human being in the world,. We no longer know him that way, as if to say, and he is saying in that context, I'm telling you what Jesus is saying. And whether or not that's a historical Jesus, you have to make judgments about. In many cases, he seems to differ on eating blood, drinking blood and eating flesh and so forth.
