Alamo girl has offered another such compilation. I just don’t find it persuasive.

Er, I don't consider three passages to be a compilation. It certainly isn't exhaustive.

The three were offered as the source for why I said:

Paul was a firebrand and he was also crafty and he was also tender-hearted.

When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question. - Acts 15:2

Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, [Ye] men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. - Acts 17:22-23

Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. - Acts 21:13

If those passages don't speak the same way to you, then so be it.

God's Name is I AM.
