Wonder why it is that they also ignore "What Happened To the deceitful believers" (Acts 5:1-11 AV)?

Amen?
Ananias & Saphira !!!!
...
1 Tim 1:16 is self explanatory yet those who reject the sole & unique role of Paul today remind me of the STIFF NECKED types.
What don't they understand ??
Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

You zoned in on a specific topic of your interest…namely:

“Does Paul (Romans to Philemon) teach that anyone did the same ?
If not why not ?”

I made a passing comment.
I had no interest to delve into your “interest” over and above my own interests.

You then promote, what you imply is “Saul’s / Paul’s, Mystery Commission” “as the insight to your interest”…

Saul / Paul’s meeting with the Lord, Being selected, his acceptance, his receiving of the Lords teaching, when and where, and his willingness and the reasoning for the Lord to select and appoint SAUL / PAUL…is NOT a mystery to me as you accused.

“You agreeing with the implication that “Paul was the founder of Christianity …”
I disagree.

Christ the Lord Jesus, founded / established HIS Church, WITH a covenant offering to ALL men of ALL races (Hebrew / Jewish Tribes men / Gentiles).

12 Jewish men were selected, agreed, were over a course of time, FOLLOWING Christ Jesus…being prepared for their commission, to Teach.

The meaning of the word…
Christianity—-IS applicable to “Followers of Christ teachings.”

Jesus chose 12 men. One deflected.
Others / Jews and Gentiles joined in following… BEFORE the Lord Jesus “offered” SAUL / PAUL a commission / a hard task / to hear, learn, preach, teach … TO:
Jews, Gentiles and governing kings.

No Paul was not the founder of Christiaseems like nity.
Saul / Paul JOINED IN, becoming an avid, informed, skilled and faithful follower, teacher of the Word of God, introducing Jews, Gentiles, kings, TO God AND Christ the Lord Jesus.

Glory to God,

Seems like you are talking to a hyper Pauline.
They use an edited bible.
Even Jesus words are "cunning traps" as are Peter's and James's words.
