I am following the conversation..you asked .. Was all His word written down at the time? As if that had any bearing on the discussion..

Yes it did. I said the Church is the pillar and ground of the truth, whether it is written or not. Then you flail around about God being omniscient.

you want to imply a continuing revelation through the pope

You have no idea what I want. A comment like that is making it personal.

Could you show us the official vatican commentary on this scripture? (for comparison purposes??)

Calvinists may consider a commentary by A. R. FAUSSET to be Scripture but I'm sure the "Vatican" does not.

This may be too much for some to follow.. but the implication that paul was speaking of the scriptures when He spoke of the church holding up the truth was met with the comment by a catholic ..you I believe, that the entire word was not yet written..I pointed out God KNEW his word.. Not all that complicated .. Paul could say that with confidence because He spoke through the Holy Spirit

Fair enough, I often use "you" in a general sense.. .so I will say that the catholic church believes in a continuing revelation that is no where hinted at in scripture,

Actually we do not have an "official" commentary.but we do not claim that men are unable to properly interpret scripture themselves.. as does the catholic church.. so where is that link that catholics have to use for CORRECT catholic interpretation of the bible .the church does have one right? ...Or are all the priests and lay teachers giving TOPIS ???
