As I have participate on this forum I see many people talk about obedience that is our salvation and others talking about how obedience flows out of salvation.

To that end I thought we could talk about how strong we are and where that strength comes from....not just about obedience and salvation but about every struggle that comes into our lives....are we strong enough to endure?  Strong enough to say no to sin?  Strong enough to go an extra mile?  Where does your strength to do these things come from?

No comment Sis, I have a right to remain silent, because anything I say will be held against me anyways.

II Corinthians 6:3-10 gives us a partial list of things Paul confronted as he asked himself the same question

3Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed: 4But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, 5In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings; 6By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, 7By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, 8By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; 9As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; 10As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

I agree that Paul was the most powerful Apostle.

He was physically tough - was a bounty hunter
He was very intelligent: Acts 26:24 Now as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are beside yourself! Much learning is driving you mad!”
He was fearless: even before Jesus spoke to him, and we can see he became really bold when filled with the Holy Spirit.

Can't wait to meet him.
