Please comment honestly. It is plain for all to see that Paul often contradicts Jesus. For example, Jesus said"Obey no man". Paul tells people to "obey the laws of the land."
And in many other places Paul is setting up doctrine that jesus never spoke.

Remember the small fact that Paul never knew Jesus. He "saw" the cross in the sky and heard the voice calling him. Other small detail is Paul being a greek jew. Thus, the Christ term introduced and the striking common ground shared by Jews and Christians, the latter being no more than a "sect" of judaism.
So, it's true. The christian doctrine was dictated by Paul, never by Jesus, whose real words and actual facts of life we may never know, thanks to those greeks and romans who took the christianity to a whole new level.

This is one reason I do not call myself a Christian. Paul set up the Jesus Fan Club and called it a church. I don't think that's what Jesus wanted.

as long as both Jesus and Paul have their teachings contained in the Bible, we would want to continuously earnings from both. Jesus is the King so we keep on with him besides the undeniable fact that the full Bible is defined contained in the scripture below: (2 Timothy 3:16) All Scripture is galvanized of God and helpful for practise, for reproving, for putting issues straight away, for disciplining in righteousness,

Great question with your commentary. Paul never discussed morality, law or 'God' with Jesus. Paul never knew Jesus. Never met him.
Have you seen this?

Or, how about... You have to believe that Jesus died and was resurrected 3 days later in order to be Saved.... I really wish someone would show me where Jesus talks about that one.
