> Do you think that Jesus, the God-man, was unaware that his disciples would write it???
It is not up to me to speculate on what Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, was or was not aware of when He was on this earth. To know that would require Divine insight, which I do not have.
It is a matter of historical fact that, as best we can tell, Jesus Himself personally neither wrote or instructed his disciples to write, any of the New Testament.
Whether they did so of Divine Inspiration is a different matter and a different question: I believe they did.
What St Peter said of St Paul, or what St Paul thought of St Peter, is entirely beside the point. NYer’s point remains intact and, on this matter anyway, fundamentally correct.
That has already been disproved by the passages from Revelation. Repeating an untruth will not make it true.
"What St Peter said of St Paul, or what St Paul thought of St Peter, is entirely beside the point. "
No, it is not. It shows the even in the lifetimes of the Apostles, they were already viewing their own writings as God-breathed Scripture.
Paul even specifically refers to a Gospel (Luke 10:7) passage as "Scripture".
1 Timothy 5:18
For the scripture saith, thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.
This is nothing more than a transparent attempt to prop up the "authority" of the RCC by knocking down Scripture a couple of rungs. It hasn't worked in the past and it won't work now.
