Enough Scripture to lead one to Jesus is found in the Hebrew Scripture which existed long before the RCC came into existence.

I can't believe that a person with your knowledge of scripture would ever say anything this inane....you would have known Jesus and learned of His wonderful teachings, and learned the lessons He taught, and learned of His miracles, and learned of His death for you, and learned of His ressurection FROM THE JEWS???????

YES!!!

Hello, the NT had not been written yet. When Jesus talked of the Scripture, it was the OT to which He was referring. It was that which He used to witness of Himself because it all points to HIM.

Matthew 22:29 But Jesus answered them, “You are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God.

John 5:39-40 You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life.

Luke 24:27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
