The Way existed when he lived as it was James who picked up the leadership of it after. If it did not exist until after, then there would be nothing of which to pick up the leadership. You are talking church mythology with the 90 Day Pentacost talk.
Jesus purportedly said that he wanted his followers, if you want what I have - you take your staff and your staff only and walk away from everything, family, friends, home all of it. He said that to his following. And "the Way" also dictated you gave up all personal belongings. Very Jewish Kibbutzy there.
Paul never knew the guy. Not once not ever. Herod was a "contemporary" too.
