Jesus vs. Paul: Thoughts on modern Christianity?

Who do modern Christians follow? Paul or Jesus?

Jesus:

“For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished.”

Matthew 5:18

Paul :

"We have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.”

Romans 7:6

Jesus:

“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

John 6:37

Paul :

"It certainly is your responsibility to judge those inside the church who are sinning."

1 Corinthians 5:12

"Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”, Jesus said:

“It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

Matthew 9 : 11 -12

Paul :

But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.

1 Corinthians 5:11

Jesus :

Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Matthew 5:48

Paul :

In Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel. Therefore I urge you to imitate me.

1 Corinthians 4 : 15 - 16
