quote:
2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is God-breathed
​
Firstly, it could also just as well mean "All scripture THAT is God-breathed is available..."
​
But even if you take it to mean your way, how do we know WHAT is scripture? At the time that sentence was written down, the NT was nothing more than a bunch of letters written by guys to churches. The Gospels weren't even written yet. The only thing considered scripture was the OT Canon. The Law and Prophets.
​
So, years later we group together a bunch of letters including this one and the gospels, call them "Scripture" and all of a sudden this makes them God breathed? I don't think so.
