Paul's Apostleship
Paul claims in Galatians 1:11,12, that he didn't get his gospel (gospel of Christ) from the other Apostles. This doesn't mean he didn't know about the gospel (gospel of the kingdom) they preached. He was among the chief Apostles at Jerusalem on at least three occasions, claiming in Gal. 1:18 to have spent 14 days with Peter. Yet it is clear from chapter two, verses 7,8,* (KJV), that he wasn't preaching the same thing Peter (Cephas), James and John were preaching.
* Bible versions destroy the distinction between the two gospels in these verses by changing the preposition "of" to "to." Go figure.
