Scripture itself tells me that it is able to make me wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

Protestant tradition interprets that verse as scripture only. A steering wheel makes a car complete, equipped for a good drive. But you also need an engine, tires etc.

The power is the Holy Spirit who works in me to will and to do according to God's good pleasure.

The scripture is not the steering wheel, or a lug nut...The scripture is the entire car traveling down the Highway of God...
