Paul didn't even meet the person of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Paul wasn't one of the original Apostles either. And by your own argument there is no authority beyond the original Apostles and we should just forget it.

Ah, hey Sherlock, I'm talking about the church today! And what does Paul have to do with meeting Jesus in the flesh have to do with the Catholic church putting emphasis on things not edifying to his mission? You kept on thinking that Christ intended the Catholic church to be run like it is today and will see who's has the elementary argument...

Uh, no Sherlock. You weren't. You said that every person after the 12 Apostles has none of the powers that Christ conferred upon them.
