I still strongly disagree.

I think the record is quite clear enough. God confirmed Paul's ministry very abundantly.

The position described seems to think God was foolish and schlocky about watching over the early beginnings of His Church.

Not remotely my construction on reality.

So, into other words, Jesus tells Peter, "You're my rock and upon this rock I build my Church ..." the Holy Spirit fills a room, grants the gift of tongues, yadda, yadda, yadda THEN ... Jesus says okay, Divine Do-Over, Saul to Paul, you're now in charge of the Church???

Come on now
