***Gal 1:18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.

Paul was ordained from the get-go to be the apostle to the Gentiles...He was ordained by God just as Peter was ordained by God...***

However Paul was ordained by the Church in the manner that all the next generation (after the Apostles) were ordained. That leads us to say that all future priests and bishops are ordained in the same fashion.

If your position were correct, then Paul would not have had to be baptized in Acts 9:18.

You're making that up...Paul was every bit an apostle as the rest of them were..

Paul did not request anone else's ordinatation nor did they offer it...Like the other apostles, Paul was ordained by God...Ordained to go out in to the world and preach the Gospel, to the Gentiles...

Totally unbiblical to suggest Paul was less than the greatest of the apostles...And then call him a bishop...What nonsense...Another fable...
