Considering that Paul never heard Yehoshua speak when Jehoshua was still alive, wouldn't you think that he would 'want' to meet with those that knew Yehoshua best?

What you say might be true, but only if you don't believe that the Holy Spirit lived in Paul's heart. If you do, then you might have to accept that he was excuting G-d's plan, not his, in which case that question becomes moot.

Works both ways. Maybe he wasn't executing YHWH's plan at all.

2Cr 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

After all, YHWH's plan is TORAH. The very thing that Paul didn't seem to want to instruct the Gentile converts in. There's a word for those that are against YHWH's wishes.

1 John 2
18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

John was a Hebrew; therefore, it is probable that the "us" John refers to in 1 John 2:19 is likely His brethren that followed Yehoshua.

John makes perfectly clear that MANY antichrists had gone out FROM THEM (early believers) teaching false doctrine.

The "spirit of antichrist" is equated to a "spirit of error".

Antichrist = erroneous doctrine. Antichrist primarily represents a set of false teachings, not simply some future possible world religious/political figure, or something inserted under the skin. Those accepting the error promoted by the "spirit of error" or "spirit of antichrist" are unintentional victims of the spirit of antichrist.

YHWH's Torah is His mark. It shows who belongs to Him.

Could this all be wrong? Sure. Could it be right? Yes.

Something to at least think about.

Seems that IF the Holy Spirit were in Pauls' heart then Paul would have executed the instructions given to him at the Jerusalem Council. The 4 necessary things that were deemed necessary by the Holy Ghost. You remember those, right?

Do you have the verses where Paul states and instructs the Gentile converts about those four necessary things?
