Revelation Of The Mystery? (His Doctrine in Romans - Philemon)
Of course, Under God's Other Context Of Grace for The ( Heavenly ) ONE Body
Of Christ, Which began with ( ONE apostle ) Paul, Baptized By The ONE Spirit,
as the first 'member' of the ONE New man...
(Ephesians 2:15; 1 Timothy 1:16; Romans 11:13; Ephesians 4:5;

Your argument is unbiblical. And is not even contextual to the very thread point.
What would we believe in regarding the Gospel of Christ if Paul's writings were not part of the Bible?
That has been answered with the word of God. FYI, Jesus speaking about John, said :
Luke 7:28-
28 For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
John did not witness the resurrection of Christ Paul did. Paul's witness is said in Acts chapter 9 and 1cor chapter 15. You were shown that Paul received his teaching from Christ. You are arrogant and prideful. And unbiblical.
Yes, the entire Bible is the Truth, the whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth. It is the inspired Word of God. God is the author of the Bible and it must be handled with care and reverence.
pauls writings are epistles he sent to the Churches letters he sent addressing matters they didn’t understand
For instance “ Roman’s “ is short for “ Paul the apostles epistle to the church at rome “ Galatians is “ Paul’s epistle to the church at Galatia “ Ephesians is “ Paul’s epistle to the church at Ephesus “
then you have a few personal letters of Paul written from prison to particular people , two to Timothy , one to Titus and one to Philemon. Thessalonians Colossians ect are to the churches in those places furthermore the epistles of Peter and Paul and John and James and Jude were circulated among all of the churches
“And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.”
Colossians 4:16 KJV
this is one missing epistle we know about of course th re are claims but nothing really solid evidence wise as to an authentic letter to the ladoceans
The same thing we believe now. God's revelation was going to be accomplished with or without Paul.
a lot of his teachings seem like really deep thinking, which leaves you scratching the head a bit, almost like they where rehearsed speeches.
