Except there was NO Bible...in your quote? Paul couldn’t have read the bible it didn’t exist...
we had to wait for Spurgeon... so only he could interpret the BIBLE there was no authority before him!
I looked and looked but I couldn’t find any of his writings in 1st 2nd 3rd or even 4th century..hmm 19th century I read some stuff but nothing Earlier? How strange..hmmm
Sure. The OT that the Jews had doesn't count as Scripture for some folks I guess.
The quote doesn't say *Bible*, it says *Scripture*, which of course, the Jews had and Paul was intimately familiar with.
