<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; color: #494a44; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; background-color: #ffffff;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times;"><span style="line-height: 17px; white-space: pre-wrap; widows: 1;">Paul thus himself impliedly admits the 12 rejected supporting Paul's authority in the true church which Paul hoped to receive by a written commendation.

Or perhaps more specifically that Paul followed an impostor Jesus which Jesus warned about in Matthew 24.</span></span></p> </td>
