Do I think the writers of the NT got together for a group photo with the caption "The New Testament Gang"? No...

But I DO know that Paul received directly from Jesus Christ, to him, to us. What he wrote was from Christ, to him, to us. As Paul was well aware, and told us. Just like Moses. From God, to Moses, to Israel.

Yo, Dawg! (I don't get a lot of opportunities to say that) There were a number or testimonies by Apostles and close disciples of Jesus that were rejected by Canon. There is no doubt that much of them came directly from Jesus and was inspired. These, at the time of St. Paul, could easily have been included in the definition of Scripture given by the anti-Catholics on this thread. If we are to accept their postulate we must agree that, when St. Paul referred to Scripture, he had special knowledge of what Canon would be. I am not ready to agree to that, are you?
