I'm just throwing this out there, but perhaps Paul's messenger of satan, was a demon that tried to undo every good thing Paul ever said
maybe that demon threw out scripture, taken out of context, and reminded Paul of all his sins every time Paul thanked God for Jesus
maybe that demon attacked Paul every time he spoke the truth of new life in Christ
what do y'all think? (rhetorical question but you see where I'm going with this, right?)
I think it's a load of crap. Paul's thorn was never mentioned 'cause it was none of our business.
