I like Paul's writings. The pseudo-Paul books are less valuable, but Paul had a way of explaining things that makes perfect sense. You have to read the whole thing to see what he was really talking about. No wonder Paul is downplayed by the authorities these days; can't have people thinking for themselves or thinking they are individuals.

Thank you so very much for sharing your preference for Paul!

I think it is important to remember that Christ selected the disciples - including Paul - knowing how different they were. Jesus could have chosen or made them all alike! And, in Revelation, Christ speaks to the churches, each one having a different personality. This demonstrates to me that He accepts those types of differences.

Some people relate closely to Paul; others, to Peter; others, to James, etc. As for me, I wish to be more like John.
