I think that Paul was instrumental in spreading the gospel of Christianity. True, Paul did not personally know Jesus, and yet his impact was profound, and it is still felt to a degree today. To the same token, look at any prominent (in the wordly sense of the word) follower of Christ. Take Billy Grahm (apologies for spelling errors in this post) for example. He did not see Jesus die on the cross, nor did he touch his wounds, but he spread the news to many people, and through televangelism he brought the gospel to many, just as Paul spread the news of Jesus through letters and word of mouth.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that to spread the gospel, you didn't have to see Jesus. All you need is a strong relationship with Him, where He is in control. And I know others will say "Well if the disciples didn't see Him die, we would have no account.", but I say because that has already happened so long ago, we can spread Jesus like Paul, or Billy Grahm. I will stop here because I'm doubting whether I am ranting mindlessly now or actually making sense. Thanks.
