( I would not believe in the Gospel if the authority of the Catholic Church did not move me to do so.)
You asked where Paul quotes God in support of any of his writings and in the certification passage, Paul avers that the gospel he preached was received directly from Christ, i.e. he is repeating what he heard and/or was told to say.
Christ certified His words in the same way:
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak. - John 12:49-50
