No clearer as to why you designate Luke as Jesus' "personal disciple". Surely Luke was a disciple of Jesus, and companion of Paul, but why call him a personal disciple?
Jesus clearly chose Luke to write Bible, God's written Word!

We are all taught directly be Jesus if we are constantly in prayer. That doesn't make any of us, including Paul, perfect.
How many Books of the Bible did you write? Paul wrote more than ANYBODY! Jesus spoke audibly to Paul and guided Paul. Paul is SPECIAL to Jesus! Paul died for Jesus!

Acts 9:15
15 But the Lord said to him, "Go, for he is a chosen vessel of Mine to bear My name before Gentiles, kings, and the children of Israel.

You still can't put Paul on the same level as Jesus.

I believe Jesus said,

Mat 10:40 He that receiveth you receiveth me,
and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

Similarly

Gal 4:14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected;
but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.

When these were lying to men Peter said they were not doing so to men but God

Acts 5:4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.

Paul also spoke of despising not man but God in this thing

1 Thes 4:2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

1 Thes 4:8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.

So you are saying Paul is Jesus? You know that isn't true.

Never said it was. Why are you making stuff up??? The Bible is the written Word of God!
Then you are giving the Bible the same authority as God, but nothing has the same authority as God.

You are clearly attacking the Christian Bible! Why do you profess to be Christian?
