Again, Paul was not one of the 12, nor did he consider himself to be one.
Asserting that he was contradicts direct scriptural evidence.
“28 Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, in the new world, when the Son of Man will sit on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” - Matt 19
“And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.” - Rev 21
Are there 13 Apostles, whose ministries are a foundation to the city of God?
