<>II Timothy 3:16-17, clearly states that God gave us the Bible. The verses tell us that the Bible is " . . . profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." <>

that the man of God may...may..may help make the man of God complete and equipped.....not that scripture in itself is complete and equipped...man of God is also clergy not a layperson..

James 1:4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."

We don't need anything including scripture except steadfastness?????
