Again, respectfully, the problem is not with reading comprehension. I had at least as much difficulty figuring out what you meant as Sophie did. The sentence is confusing. Neither the gospel nor the apostles "ended" in Scripture at all. The "gospels" (records) ended, as did all the individual books. Scripture records the "end" of the earthly lives of a few of the apostles. However, whatever you happen to mean by your sentence is opaque to others.
well I just had a revelation why don’t you and Sophie interact with people who’s words you grasp ?

honestly I think it’s always going to be opaque to some like the Bible also is

SAME Brother - i am going salmon fishing Thursday until the following week so i will not be able to respond.
Please keep an eye on the pre-fib threads for me as there is a genuine Godly purpose to presenting truth and exposing error i in a equitable manner.

i was dwelling on Christ's words when He said it is BETTER for us that He goes to the Father so that the Holy Spirit can indwell us and lead us to all Truth - never forget this - and always cherish the Holy Spirit of God in you.
love you my Brother - please pray for a very successfull fishing trip - taking my two sons with me

What I think we need to note about Paul was that he was one of the 12 apostles. These 12 trained the men of the church of the apostle age, the true church as the Lord gave it instructions. This church stood and grew in power even though it was an illegal church in the eyes of the world. It wasn't until Constantine made himself leader of the church, a man of the world, that the church stayed close to Christ. It marked the end f he church of the apostles.

Paul did not know Christ in the flesh as we are told the other apostles did, but we are told Paul was personally taught by Christ those three years in Arabia. Scripture also states that Paul was an apostle, not a disciple, and all apostles had to be personally taught by Christ.
Paul did not preach himself but Christ, and Him crucified. He is the appointed apostle to the Gentiles. He had revelations and understanding which the other apostles did not have concerning the church.

There is no difference between Paul and Christ, name one difference. We read Paul as we would read the very word of God, which is what it is.

There were many things Jesus did not teach in the gospels for the disciples were not ready for them. The Holy Spirit led them into all truth.
