I so agree with you!

If the enemy spit on him, Paul thought it to be good, that the evil was evil to him. Kinda like, “Come on fool, get it on”, I know who you are!!!

I think so too, remember when he was stoned and wanted to go back in the city and mix it up again with the very people who had tried to kill him?! BUT Paul's friends stopped him, yes?

– I think Paul knew who he was to the uttermost, and that he was so close to Jesus, he really talked to himself, if that means anything to anybody.

That is very interesting way to look at it.
Yes I think he may have been very close to Jesus.

I realized when I was reading Paul that if I had loved him and lived back then -- the worst thing in the world would have been to want to marry him.

All a woman could do would be to slow him down while trying to keep him from getting killed or pouring himself out like a an offering for people who most probably would not have seemed worth it.

Jesus gave Paul his horrible thing, and Paul hated it to start with, BUT!! When he ( understood ), Paul simply joyed in it to the uttermost.

Again a very intersting way to look at that! Thanks Paul!

Gotta go see you later (probably tomorrow)
