1Pe 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
1Pe 3:16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good behavior in Christ.
2Pe 3:15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him has written unto you;
2Pe 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable twist, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
With the words of Peter in mind, asking For the Holy spirit to lead, I propose we begin discussing the message of Paul from the first mention of him and his earliest words; beginning in the book of Acts, perhaps we can post a chapter or two here at a time then any group members can comment on each passage; we can run a comb through the scripture looking for understanding as to why there might be misunderstanding by some, and Yah willing, defend our brother Paul shalom

I use IT guy as an analogy due to my experience in that field. I see the people that do not understand a thing of computers and their faces going numb when talking with someone who does know them and is telling them in detail what the problem is. Pick a field of study of your choice, then pick the person that knows it better than anyone and picture them trying to explain even simple things to someone who doesn't understand. They are going to use words, phrases, and analogies that the other person probably won't get. This isn't on purpose, but due to once you get that deep into something, everything becomes so obvious that it is hard to picture that no one else can see it the way you do.
Here is a comic I did a while back with a some more commentary on my thoughts on it. I have a lot of comics defending Paul
