The Bible is the Golden Calf for the Sola Scriptura Protestants. I really don’t care what they believe, as long as they stop pretending to be, and calling themselves “Christians”. Real Christians consider Christ to be the Word of God - NOT Paul.
Paul was hated by pagans and apostates in his own day too but since he was an apostle chosen by Christ and his writings are God inspired, I’ll trust what he says over “The Church of the Darnel” anytime.

I realize that it is the highly suspect Apostle Paul speaking (and who knows what Jesus was thinking when He appointed Paul an apostle, go figure), but, “And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.” (1 Corinthians 9:25)
Good advice there, GETOFFMYLAWN!
I will add “temperate” to “truthful” on my list of the first things about which I will turn to you for advice and help ... per your offer of such, of course.
