Vs PAUL OF TARSUS

Saul-Paul of Tarsus was:

AN APOSTATE

1.  a Roman citizen.
2. a Chief persecutor of the Nazarenes and the Ebionites aka the Jewish followers of Jesus.
3.  a traitor of the Law of Moses.

But:
4.  He was not a real disciple of Jesus, like the others.
5.  He was not a real Apostle, like the others, appointed by Jesus himself.
6. He was practically exiled from the Jerusalem congregation by its leaders.

CONCLUSION :
Blood of the persecuted was on his hands.
He was an apostate of the Law of Moses.
He created a dissident sect of his own by opposing the Mosaic Law.

He wrote himself:

^{GALATIANS  3 : 10-14}

“For all who rely on doing the works of the law are under a curse, for it is written, “Cursed be everyone who does not abide by doing everything written in the book of the law.”
Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, for the righteous one will live by faith. But the law is not based on faith, but the one who does the works of the law will live by them. Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us (because it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”) so that that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we could receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.”

EXTRA POINT:
It is just sad to state that there is an other major Apostate,
and it is Shim’on bar Yona aka Kephas – Peter.
Peter’s cover-up  for Paul in the Jerusalem Assembly of the Nazarenes goes like this:
“Peter rose up and said to them: “Brethren, you know that a good while ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my mouth the message of the gospel and believe. ⁸ God, who knows the heart, bare them witness that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. ⁹ He put no difference between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. ¹⁰ Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? ¹¹ But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, just as they are.”  – ACTS 15: 7-11
