Paul Built It. Jesus Just Lent His Name.
I wonder how much of what the historical Jesus said made it into the Synoptic Gospels. Certainly the Synoptics are heavily influenced by Paul. For example they all feature substitutionary atonement. But there are parts of them that are not Pauline.
Excellent piece. I've believed this on my own for decades now. We are here to serve our brothers and sisters, even the ones who worship Paul.
