Every single one of St. Paul’s doctrines must have come from the eleven Apostles, since Paul’s encounter with the risen Christ is described in full and did not contain any teaching.

lol. Do you not see how this very sentence hands over the sovereignty of the one Creator to the creation?

Paul corrected Peter; not the other way around.

UNMITIGATED BALDERDASH.

What was Paul doing 3 years in the wilderness? Playing friendly with horned toads and counting spines on cactus?

Who does Paul declare taught him?

My reading of Scripture at least hints if not clearly indicates that Paul had a LOT better company in the wilderness than toads and lizards.

He certainly made it clear he didn't learn Biblical truths from the rest of the disciples.

I thought Vatican reps read Scripture . . . . well . . . at least some of them . . . according to them.

So much outrageous rubber Bible stuff from the Vatican reps just has to be ignored else the wounded wailing would be endless. This, however, must be responded to forcefully. It is plainly and brazenly UNBiblical.

Galatians 1:11-12:

NIV:
11I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I preached is not something that man made up. 12I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

THE MESSAGE:
Know this—I am most emphatic here, friends—this great Message I delivered to you is not mere human optimism. I didn't receive it through the traditions, and I wasn't taught it in some school. I got it straight from God, received the Message directly from Jesus Christ.

AMPLIFIED:
11For I want you to know, brethren, that the Gospel which was proclaimed and made known by me is not man's gospel [a human invention, according to or patterned after any human standard].

12For indeed I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but [it came to me] through a [direct] revelation [given] by Jesus Christ (the Messiah)

NEW LIVING TRANSLATION:
12 I received my message from no human source, and no one taught me. Instead, I received it by direct revelation from Jesus Christ.[a]

I realize that some Vatican reps are convinced [outrageously so] that !!!!TRADITION!!!! and RELIGIOUS political power-mongering magicstericals trump Scripture.

I have never observed God affirming such a crazy notion ever, at all in all my 61 years.
