Acts 1: 26 says this: "And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles." Thus quite clearly Matthias was the replacement for Judas who was already dead before Jesus as he hanged himself in despair as recorded.

Paul did not take any Apostles placeinstead Mathias took Judas' place because Judas hung himself. Paul was one of the other Apostles that was chosen by Jesus. Paul was a Christian killer he would stop at nothing to kill the Christian religion But on the way to Damascus to put more Christians in Jail, he was stopped by the Jesus and was given a different task. Many people think that Paul was converted on the way to Damascus, but they would be wrong.

The Apostles did not constitute an organization such as the Supreme Court of the United States, which always needs to have a certain number of members, so that when one member leaves for any reason, a new member is appointed. Following the crucifixion of Jesus, there was no need for new apostles, and no new apostles were chosen.

Paul did not replace any apostle. He was called by Jesus Christ to be an apostle to the Gentiles, alongside the original twelve apostles.

What is the correct grammar - Apostle Paul or apostle Paul?

OpinionI would say Apostle Paul wherever I use 'Apostle' as a title, in the same way as I would say Mr Smith, with 'Mr' capitalised. Less frequently, I would write 'apostle' uncapitalised if I did not intend it as a title, for example where 'apostle' is the subject of the sentence, and Paul is addressed. Use capitals to be on the safe side.
