It always amazes me that people forget that the Bibke [sic] was given to the world by The catholic church....

It always amazes me that the Catholic church promotes that lie and people believe it.

The OT was recognized and verified as Scripture by Jesus Himself, long before the RCC came into existence. And Paul's writings were recognized as Scripture pretty much at the time they were written.

“The OT was recognized and verified as Scripture by Jesus Himself, long before the RCC came into existence.”

That’d be the Septuagint, given how many times the New Testament quoted from the Septuagint. And as to the latter part of your words, Jesus was the one who created the Roman Catholic Church. So if your statement were accurate (and it isn’t), it would have said The Septuagint was recognized as Scripture by Jesus Himself, before He created the Roman Catholic Church. There. Fixed it for you.

Absolutely right. Peter acknowledges Pauls writings as scripture in 2 Peter.

I think some pieces are missing from your Bible, if all you have is Paul and the OT.

And the logic behind it would nuke the church by requiring submission to those who sat in the seat of Moses. (Mt. 23:2)

Which canon of the OT did Jesus verify?
