So you admit then that it doesn’t give a list of authoritative Epistles from Paul the Apostle.
So where do we get this list of Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Romans, Colossians, Thessalonians, Timothy, Titus and Philemon from?
“So you admit “
I admit that all of the Epistles of Paul are scripture, as defined by the scripture itself. But as to “where they come from.” They come from the hands of Paul who wrote them and distributed them among the church, as ordained by God. Ignatius and Polycarp, for example, quotes from the vast majority of the New Testament, indicating their usage and well-known place in the church long before the end of the first century. Meanwhile, none of these writers, not even Clement, mentions the Papacy or its traditions.
