Paul wasn’t teaching a system
When Paul talks about being “caught up to the third heaven,” he isn’t describing doctrine.
He’s describing a moment where his awareness slipped out of its normal frame and he couldn’t tell if he was in his body or not.
That’s the whole key to reading him.
All the language about veils lifting, inner renewal, light inside, Christ within… that’s someone reaching for words after a consciousness event he didn’t have the vocabulary for.
Once you understand the temple imagery from Kings and how it maps to the inner ascent, it becomes obvious.
Paul went up the inner stair.
He saw the top room.
Everything after that was him trying to put the indescribable into sentences.
Later institutions turned those sentences into rules.
But Paul wasn’t building a religion.
He was describing the moment the inner world broke open for him.
If you read him that way, his message finally makes sense.
