What's the point of Peter singling him out as hard to understand
Peter was often "slow to hear".
At one point, Paul, who was not one of the 12 original apostles, (as you know).... had to correct Peter's public behavior.
Another time, in Acts 10, God had to correct Peter's Theology, and that was 10 yrs after Jesus was back in Glory.
Peter, in Acts 10, which is about a decade after Jesus is "ascended", has no idea that Gentiles can be saved.
Peter did recognize that Paul's letters were equal to the Torah, and said so... referred to Paul's actual letters as "scripture".
That is kinda amazing, when you consider that Paul was not with them, when they knew Jesus.
Paul came later, and at first they were afraid of Him.
"we heard about this one who was in charge of having Believers harmed, killed, is now one of us".
Interesting situaion.
Paul is very "spiritual".. So, His epistles, can be chastisement to some church members, but most of the Time, Paul's letters
are very spiritual , much moreso then the other Apostles,....the same way that the Gospel of John is very Spiritual, when compared to the other 3.
