Les teaches that Paul was uniquely called of God to be the Apostle of the Gentiles. He is not one of many, but THE Apostle; others will follow in his footsteps, yet Paul is the one to whom we must go for our basic doctrines. Les also notes Paul was separated to the Gospel of God, which God had promised before by His prophets in the Holy Scriptures concerning His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, made of the seed of David according to the flesh.
