Not true either. Matthew was not a fisherman, he was a toll colector.
Paul had the best school of religion of those days.
Luke was a doctor.
Also, having a manual profession has nothing to do with not being smart or intelligent. When you read letters of John or Peter, they were intelligent. John uses philosophical terms (logos pros ton theon) etc. They were not stupid.
Yes they were not stupid.... unless they denied Christ being dumbed down by the father of lies. Two kinds of wisdom.
Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying,
Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. But he turned, and
said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men. Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.Mathr ew 16:22-24
Satan is the father of stupid .
Paul with his education and false zeal for knowing God prior to receiving the wisdom of God working in his heart, tortured both men and woman and killed the misperceived competition(Christians) as in out of sight out of mind... wisdom of the world (no faith)
Satan is a murderer from the beginning...... Did God say you will surely die? death came by the murderer, the god of this world.
And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and
slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,
And
desired of him letters (of approval) to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?And he said, Who art thou, Lord?
And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricksActs 9:1-5
And again adding more information . Notice its the result of following the laws of men called a "law of the fathers" and not the law of our father in heaven that they made to no effect. by having their faith in respect to that seen.
LOL He is still paying off the student loan with nothing to show for it other than a rebuke.
Acts 22:1-7 (KJV) Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you. (And when they heard that
he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)
I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the "law of the fathers" (as oral traditons of men) , and was zealous (falsely) toward God, as ye all are this day. And I persecuted this way
unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons
both men and women. As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters
( of approaval) unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for
to be punished. And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me. And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me,
Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
