>> “Wrong, because the Apostles wrote additional works that the Church would affirm as Scripture” <<

.
Utter gibberish!

The church does not exist as a visible organized body that could do such things.

When you say ‘church,’ obviously you mean the RCC, but that is about as far from Yeshua’s church as one could possibly get.

New testament ‘scriptures’ are valid only to the extent that they are in full agreement with Torah and Tanakh, and those are what Yeshua gave us to guide us.

The idea that Yeshua quoted from the LXX is folley.

The LXX was injected when the NT writings were translated into Greek, and was done specifically because the Greek translators were not in any way competent in Hebrew language, nor culture, so they punted and substituted the LXX for the actual scriptures. This is solidly proven in the Hebrew mss of Matthew where the actual words of Yeshua are recorded by Matthew who was a true witness.

Of course a catholic will continue in error rather than meet the truth that shatters the house of pagan cards that is catholicism.

So far as we know, the only book that was translated from Hebrew or Aramaic was Matthew. As for the Church, it has has to be visible because it is an organization consisting of human beings, and we are quite visible.

While Matthew was most likely originally written in Hebrew or Aramaic, the rest of the New Testament was clearly written in Greek. Thus the citations of the Old Testament given in them were indeed given from the Septuagint.

This is solidly proven in the Hebrew mss of Matthew where the actual words of Yeshua are recorded by Matthew who was a true witness.

Now who do you think you are trying to fool. There are no original Hebrew manuscripts of Matthew.
