Paul was not accepted by the early Christians. They were getting ready to take stern measures against him. His sponsors, the collaborationist Jewish hierarchy and the Roman Army got the hell out of Dodge with Paul and put him on a ship. There is not a word from Paul' protectors or his Christian detractors that indicates Paul had any support from one person in the early Christian churches.

That ambiguous sentence in 2nd Peter was certainly a forgery as was the whole of 2nd Peter.

Antlers: if it makes any difference to you, you can quit answering. Anything I say on the subject is not directed to you and I have no expectation of reaching you.
