I don't give a damn about your Paulite books. So far as I'm concerned there are three synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) and John and that's it.
But Paul.... he wasn't at the supper, he doesn't get the title. He was a fanboy at best, a tool of the anti-christ at worst. From my perspective you might as well be talking about Joseph Smith.
You think god has the power to prevent men from being stupid or evil? That's... Calvinism. And I don't think anyone in THIS community is depressed enough to truly believe you're just god's sock puppet in an utterly deterministic universe.
God presents a path. Men choose to walk it. Or not. It wouldn't be the first or last time someone who was close enough to the source to know better took a message and ran with it for their own ends.
Paul did not aim to spread Christ's message. He aimed to create a Church of Christ. That's not the same thing.
You don't get from Christ's words to Quakers being executed for heresy without Paul.
Not where the decisions of men are concerned.
Man is too much like god. To god's consternation.
Wow OK... I would rethink the use of curses when discussing divine matters.
