Rev ch 21 v 14 talks of the 12 foundations and in them the names of the 12 apostles of the Lamb. So Acts ch 1 is so important because, as verses 21 and 22 prove, Paul cannot be an apostle as he did know Jesus and was NOT a witness to Him, so did NOT meet the essential requirements to be one. Matthias was chosen to replace Judas Paul also has no witness to verify the alleged encounter in the desert of which Jesus, Himself, warns us ie. false christs appearing in the desert. Matt 24 v 5 , v 26 and John 5 v 43 ! Jesus had said that no man would see Him again because He was returning to the Father..yet Paul is self-proclaimed and says he met Jesus and was the last to see Him. 1 Cor 9 v 1 and ch 15 v 8. Luke 24 v 51 tells us otherwise. Between Genesis and Revelation are many texts which point to Paul as being an imposter and Acts ch 1 proves this to be true. Paul 's confusion has caused almost the whole church to follow him rather than Jesus, despite Jesus ' telling us that He, alone, is our Rabbi Matt ch 23 v 8 and 10..and that we should follow Him Paul contradicts Jesus over major issues eg the Sabbath and the law and grace etc ....far too much to write about here - but I would be pleased to add much much more !!!
