Therefore, the epistles - all of them not just Paul's - are continuing revelation of Christ.

I can't see any other way of reading this but that Paul is teaching something different than what Christ taught.

Are you agreeing with those who say Paul's teaching on salvation is different than Christ's teaching on the Kingdom of God? (i.e. whom is saved and why) Not only different, but that, in this view, Paul's applies to us and Jesus's does not?

Not just different; it supersedes Jesus.

Paul's revelation is later. However, they stop at Paul. John's Epistles and his Apocalypse (a lengthy and much more detailed revelation) occurred after Paul's martyrdom, and yet are treated with politeness, but not the kind of regard that Paul's epistles have for them.

I will be very interested in seeing the defense vis a vis the little sidebar that bb and I are going through now.
