Debating about Paul and Christ is not the point here. You need to believe the gospel given to Paul by Christ, that is the point I am making. We can all have debates until the cows come home, but if you have not believed this gospel you are lost.
“Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.”
Mark 1:14-15 KJV
that’s what Paul preached for three years of the Ephesians , Paul’s words
“And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.”
Acts 20:20-21, 25-27, 30-31 KJV
then later from a Roman prison he wrote a short epistle to encourage and exhort them to walk right and touched on points they needed to hear .
He did the same thing with all the churches he preached the gospel of the kingdom and the. Later sent letters back to them to keep Them in the faith at points they struggled in.
Paul is only a servant and witness the exact same as the other apostles they every one preached out the death and resurrection of Jesus and they all
Preached the gospel of the kingdom.
For many years.
the epistles aren’t a replacement for the gospel they accompany it to believers .
your mistaken to try to go only by what Paul a servant and witness of Jesus said in a short letter. he preached the gospel of the kingdom to jew and gentile many years in person to those he wrote the epistles to.
even until his death at Rome under Nero
Paul continued preaching the kingdom of God.
“And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him, Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.”
Acts 28:30-31 KJV
Every Christian believes Jesus died and rose it doesn’t mean you have to hear it from Paul. And it doesn’t cut out the rest of the gospel. It’s whether you believe it or not , the gospel is what they all
Preached and it tells us he died and rose that’s an important aspect of the gospel the starting point. The only name of significance of the name of Jesus Christ.
Paul was nothing more or less than the other apostles he was one of Jesus chosen to witness the gospel to the world
