Me: Your entire religion hinges on the truthfulness of this one man.

You: Your ignorance is showing again. You would do yourself a favor to actually read the NT before you make statements that merely show ignorance.

Paul had a profound effect on the development of Christian theology including promulgation of the concepts of redemption through faith in Christ, the abrogation of the old Law and the beginning of the age of the Spirit, Christ as the eternal Son of God, His pre-existence before the Incarnation, His exaltation to God's right hand after the Resurrection, the Church as the mystical Body of Christ, and the belief that Christians live in Christ and will eventually be transformed at the final resurrection.

So if Paul made all this up while he was wandering in Arabia for three years, then it is all a fraud. Your entire religion hinges on the honesty of this one man, a man who admitted that he would say anything.

You really don't get it do you?

Christ died. Christ rose. The gospel is that simple. The rest explains why.

1 Corinthians 1:22-24 (New King James Version)
New King James Version (NKJV)


22For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; 23but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, 24but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
