At no time did I not say Paul was a good teacher and the Holy Spirit was not downplayed by me, I thought everyone would understand that the Holy Spirit was with all those believers as with the 120 including Mary the mother of Jesus on Pentecost....not relevant to my question tho..

Well it is relevant as the revelation that he was called before he was born, by the grace of God, to be the apostle to the Gentiles was given to him by the HS. Your original statement was that you were wondering if he just took the title, Apostle to the Gentiles, because he wanted it, is thus proved incorrect. Paul says his Apostleship, his call, and the church, were all part of the Plan of Salvation. He didn’t just make it up.
