Matthew quotes from the Old Testament more than any of the other three gospel writers. He records Jesus genealogy accurately. He records Jesus words substantiated in the other gospels. Matthew was an apostle and as such was given this promise that only the twel e were given.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

I'll take Jesus word that the Holy Spirit brought to his remembrance what He wrote.

“Matthew quotes from the Old Testament more than any of the other three gospel writers. He records Jesus genealogy accurately. He records Jesus words substantiated in the other gospels. Matthew was an apostle and as such was given this promise that only the twel e were given.”

Your answer makes no sense in light of what you were asked:

“Matthew quotes from the Old Testament more than any of the other three gospel writers.”

So that makes it inspired according to the Apostles? Post a verse saying that.

“He records Jesus genealogy accurately.”

Who decided that? In what verse do the Apostles say that Matthew got it right? Who decided that Luke’s genealogy of Jesus reconciles with Matthew’s?

“He records Jesus words substantiated in the other gospels.”

And in what verse do you find the Apostles saying all four gospels are inspired?

“Matthew was an apostle and as such was given this promise that only the twel e were given.”

Show the verse that says that THAT Matthew was one in the same as the gospel writer. There is no such verse of course.

“I’ll take Jesus word that the Holy Spirit brought to his remembrance what He wrote.”

Show a single verse - just one - that says Matthew was inspired, or that gospel writer Matthew was an Apostle, or that the other Apostles approved of what Matthew wrote and considered in inspired. Can you? No, such verses exist.
