Paul is an intellectual, and he is a zealot.. So, perhaps God needed this >type< to comprehend the deeper mysteries of the Faith and expound them to the Body Of Christ, vs "fishermen".
Something else about Paul is that he stated in (Philippians Chapter 3) about himself, that he is "blameless in the law" ........and that is pretty amazing.
Perhaps this is another reason he was specifically chosen by Yeshua to receive so much advanced (doctrinal) revelation.
What i do know, is that there is light years between what Paul teaches about Justification vs what the other Apostle were teaching for salvation, UNTIL Paul's teaching found its way to all of them.
At the end of Peter's life, he refers to the letters of Paul as having the same authority as his Torah.....as he compares Paul's letters to "the Scriptures", in 2nd Peter Chapter 3.......and of course Peter's final analysis of Paul's letters is still true 2000 years later, as Paul's letters created most of the New Testament and nearly 100% of the Doctrine's the Body of Christ trusts as absolute truth.
What i have discovered about Christians who have issues with understanding Grace and hate (OSAS), is that they all without exception have a "study deficit" regarding :
Romans
Galatians
Ephesians
Philippians
Colossians
And its in THOSE Pauline epistles that you are given the same revelation that God gave Paul so that we understand the Atonement, Redemption, Justification.
We as believers are told that we must have our hearts established with Grace, and that is to say a deep understanding and heart connection, and if we dont then we will "Fall from Grace", and that is what you find on every Christian forum and in so many denominations...... You have believers who cant even define Grace while attacking the clear teaching of it as "hyper", and this is because they have not studied Paul's letters to get the LIGHT< and so without this they become legalists who simply need to study those epistle's of Paul's i listed for a while.
