Dearie me. This book larnin' is highly overrated.
The one pervasive common feature is the almost horrifying reaction to Sola Scriptura as if it were the Devils Brew.
The entire NT depicts the establishment of the teaching church. Sola Scriptura is not permitted. Only the teachings of the Apostles and disciples (and the Church)are.
Jesus spoke to a largely unlearned group.
Just like today, a whole bunch of them do not understand.
He spoke in parables. He didn't tell the people that salvation was out of their grasp because it's just too hard! No He did not. Any church, group or person that declares the Bible is insufficient to find salvation is trying either to make a dollar or vying for some influence over people.
What Bible did Jesus teach out of? What Bible did any of the Apostles teach out of?
The Truth shall set you free and not some self declared infallible institution that once presided over inquisitions.
The Word shall set you free, and not any self declared interpreter of the word of God who gets his doctrines from the image in the mirror each morning.

LOL!
Matthew 15:
[3] But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
[4] For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
[5] But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
[6] And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
[7] Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
[8] This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
[9] But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

Christ denounced all traditions, and demanded obedience to the written commandments. We must emulate him, ans reject the traditions of Satan taught by the catholic ‘church.’

The Hebrew scriptures of course. They told all that needed to be said to find Christ.
