***In Jesus ministry, he was Sola Scriptura. That’s why you need to be cautious regarding what or who you call “idiotic”.***

I understand that you might be mixing up OT and NT. Jesus referred to the OT (including the Deuterocanonicals). The NT wasn’t put together for 300 years after His ascension.

“I understand that you might be mixing up OT and NT.”

There’s no mix up. The principle of Jesus’ reliance on scripture is on almost every page of the Gospels. Jesus was sola Scriptura with the Scriptures of his day.

****************

“Jesus referred to the OT (including the Deuterocanonicals)”

Jesus directly quotes the OT 121 times in the Gospels. He never directly quotes the Deuterocanonicals. Not once.

****************

“The NT wasn’t put together for 300 years after His ascension.”

The books were “around” for most of that period, and authoritative the entire time. They just weren’t assembled.

This has no bearing on Jesus use of sola Scriptura.
