II Peter 3:15-16 --- Peter refers to Paul's writings as "Scripture". You remember Peter, don't you? Is his testimony acceptable to you?

That makes perfect sense that Peter's word verifies. He is, after all, the first pope. It still doesn't speak to Paul's point of view. For Paul to consciously assert that his writings were divinely inspired would be a scandalous arrogance unbecoming of a Christian.

not according to II Peter 3:15-16.

What were the other Scriptures he was referring to? Paul's letters were the earliest texts in circulation, other than the Old Testament.

Are you a mindreader. How do you know what he knew? were you sitting on his shoulder?

Apparently I'm the same mind reader who knew that Paul intended to say Scripture "alone". Were you sitting on his shoulder?

Your misconception has been corrected by Scripture. Your welcome.

Your argument is built upon error. Try again.

I suppose 2 Thessalonians Chapter 3 doesn't count?
