We consider Paul to be pretty well on a par with Peter as the greatest of the Apostles, with all the others as lessers.

LOL. Then stop criticizing the Reformers for quoting Paul since we do so not to the exclusion of the words of Christ, but in tandem with them.

The Reformed mostly ignore the Gospels except to pull out of context snippets. Look at the utter confusion that occurred when they were asked to summarize the Gospels.

They also do not understand Paul. The most widely quoted and dearly held verses of Paul by the Reformed are those where Paul admonishes straying congregations. This is then whipped together with fanciful interpretations from the OT and emerge as Reformed theology where the few are frogmarched into Heaven and the many are cast into hell.
