2 Timothy 3:16-17 16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

"Paul wrote 2 Timothy was when he was in prison in Rome for the second time. Unlike his first imprisonment, Paul did not expect to be released from this second Roman imprisonment. (This explains why Paul experienced a mass desertion: his associates were fleeing a dangerous political situation.) The date of the composition of 2 Timothy was during Nero's persecution of the church, c. 64-68. "

All Scripture is breathed out by God

Sure. But that doesn't tell you which of the writings are Scipture, which is breathed out by God. Show the earliest list that you can reference of the complete New Testament.
