When were Paul's early letters written?

Paul's early letters were written during his early missionary travels, which began about A.D. 40 after he returned from three years of instruction with the Lord at Mount Sinai. These early letters are identified as Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, and Galatians.

Les explains that Paul wrote as the Holy Spirit inspired him, sending letters to various churches by courier. He notes that Romans was sent to Rome from Corinth with Phoebe, while others went with friends such as Titus and Timothy. Paul likely did not know his writings would become the Canon of Scripture. Les then sets a timeline of Paul's epistles, starting with letters written during Paul's early missionary travels. Those travels began about A.D. 40 after Paul returned from three years of instruction with the Lord at Mount Sinai. The early letters named are Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, and Galatians.
