I can't answer your question if I don't agree with it.

If that was a question that "begs the question" , I could see your point, however, since it isn't I can't. Maybe I should have simply asked :
Does Paul have the authority to alter Christ's message?

That includes adding to it and/or subtracting from it.

Paul had the authority from Christ Himself to preach His message.

I narrowed the question down to a precice definition , really a Yes he did or No he didnt. and your answer seems more like you're trying to answer the first question that you couldnt answer because you didn't agree with it
So I'm really still waiting for your answer to the second one.

How do you know this? Because Paul said so? Or do you have something more concrete?

Is it the same authority that Darfius has to preach your god's message?

I know because Peter verified it and because everything Paul preached agrees with what Jesus preached and what the OT says.

I have the authority to share God's Word to the nations.

If you're asking did Paul have the authority to preach something Jesus would not have agreed with, then no, he didn't. The Holy Spirit told Paul all he needed to preach.

Who gave you that authority? Was it your god? Did he appear to you in a dream, or on a mountain? Or do you have that authority because a book says you have that authority?

The Bible and the Holy Spirit.

That isnt what Im asking , Im asking a lot more simple a question. Simply : Did Paul have the authority to vary Christ's message?

Paul did not have the authority to preach something contradictory to Christ's message.

Vary?
