Oh! And!

Do you think that the teachings of St. Paul were NOT God-breathed when he preached them, but WERE God-breathed when he wrote them?

“Do you think that the teachings of St. Paul were NOT God-breathed when he preached them”

Correct. He taught with authority. His teachings were not equivalent to Scripture in the way you are asking.

” but WERE God-breathed when he wrote them?”

He did not simply “write them.”

He was moved by the Holy Spirit and the Scriptures were “God-breathed” as detailed in Scripture.
