Because he spread the Truth told by Jesus and this world does not like the truth because it is selfish.

Paul was primarily persecuted by his own kinsmen, who were Jews, and Paul's message challenged their historic unique identity. Their actions were not representative of all Jews of his time, but like any other people group (this would include yours) there was disagreement and internecine conflict.

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.
