Paul went before the leaders of the 12 (Peter, James and John) and was vetted by them, even though Peter and Paul had a falling out later on, he was still regaurded as an apostle because Paul was the same gifts of Healing and prophesy/preaching the other 12 had.
Are you sure they were the same gifts?

Wrote: Like this miracle: Acts 13:8 Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him, And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
Luke 9:55-56 Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them.
You didn't even quote a full verse
Here is what you left out: Then everything became dark for Elymas. He walked around lost. He was trying to find someone to lead him by the hand. 12 When the governor saw this, he believed. He was amazed at the teaching about the Lord.
So by the act of Blinding Elymas (which btw is EXACTLY WHAT JESUS DID TO SAUL TO GET HIM TO BELEIVE) Saved the Gov'na!
So then How exactly is what Paul did in question in your mind's eye?
