I've been seriously out of touch not learning about the contention surrounding Apostle Paul. What's this now? Three threads questioning his authenticity as an Apostle of Christ?
Contention with Paul isn't anything new, but that's not exactly what this thread is about. Other threads have been largely "Paul wasn't a real apostle" kind of thing; this thread is more about how Christians can ascertain that writers, such as Paul, wrote authentic, divinely inspired material: How can Christians be sure that the Pauline epistles are of divine provenance rather than merely being Paul's personal, fallible, human opinions. Paul's sincerity and position within the early Church doesn't seem to be called into question here (as is done in those other threads you are likely referring to), this has more to do with how Christians engage with the biblical texts themselves. Or at least that is how I've understood the thread.
