 In 1901, Wilhelm Wrede would make his lasting fame by repeating many of Bauer's ideas in his book, "The Messianic Secret".Also, for some influential theologians in the Tübingen School, several Pauline epistles were regarded as forgeries of the 2nd century.Bauer radicalised that position by suggesting that all Pauline epistles were forgeries written in the West in antagonism to the Paul of "The Acts".
