Paul wrote 13 (maybe 14) of the books of the New Testament, but there are many people who call themselves Christians who don’t think Paul’s writings belong in the Bible. If you trust Jesus, you should trust the Bible. All through the New Testament, we see Jesus upholding the authority of Scripture as God’s word. If you trust Jesus, you should trust the writings of the Apostle Paul, because Jesus sent Paul. We know Jesus sent Paul because his testimony was confirmed with many miracles. And we know that Paul’s writings are Scripture because Peter (the disciple on whom Jesus said he would build HIs church) said they were. Just because you don’t like what Paul says, that doesn’t mean his epistles aren’t the word of God. Paul’s writings 100% belong in the Bible.
Bible Verses:
