Did Paul change the original gospel of Jesus?

Did Paul change the original gospel of Jesus? Based on my research in the Holy Bible, the message is in line with Lord Jesus. Let me share as why I believe Paul's teachings is the same as the Lord's.

Rom 9:1 (Paul said) I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost
Gal 1:11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
Gal 1:12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.


1John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
1Jo 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: but he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.

Vision of Jesus can be from a false Christ if he contradicts with His eternal words in the Holy Bible. By the fruit, you shall know the Tree or Truth of the person in the vision.

2 Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

Mat 7:18 (Jesus said) A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.


2Cor 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

Mat 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
Mat 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

Mat 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.



In Acts 22:3-18, Apostle Paul testifies about his encounter with Lord Jesus on his way to Damascus.

Dr. Luke wrote about Paul:
Acts 22:3 (Paul said) I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.

Gal 1:7 & 12 Paul said: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
2Ti 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,

Dr. Luke wrote about Paul was with Apostle John. Thus Paul's teaching was acceptable as there was no condemnation in other epistles of John. Paul was filled with Holy Ghost as Jesus promised to all who believe in His Name.

Act 13:9 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,
Act 13:13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them (Paul's team) returned to Jerusalem.

Act 13:46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

Paul was with Apostle Barnabas in the ministry and there was no bad report about Paul.
Act 14:14 Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out

The early church at Jerusalem commended Paul's teachings and sent him together with Barnabas to Antioch
Act 15:22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas: namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
Act 15:23 And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia.

Act 15:30 So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:
Act 15:31 Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
Act 15:32 And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and CONFIRMED them.

1Co 14:29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.


Apostle Peter commended Paul's ministry

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 hath 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 wrest, as they do also the other Scriptures, unto their own destruction.


Dr. Luke testified about Paul's teachings was faultless.

Act 25:7 And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could NOT prove.


Paul went to Jerusalem to meet Apostle Peter and James the Lord's brother.

Gal 1:18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
Gal 1:19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.
Gal 1:20 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.

Sura 2: 282 ... And call to witness, from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not (at hand) then a man and two women, of such as ye approve as witnesses...

Matthew 18:16 Jesus said: But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.


Sura 10:94 says "And if thou (Muslim) art in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto thee, then question those (Christians) who read the Scripture {Bible} (that was) before thee. Verily the Truth from thy Lord hath come unto thee. So be not thou of the waverers."
