Okay, let's look at that verse.
15 And that from a child
thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise
unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
Nothing in that changed the meaning of " all " in the next verse.
16
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and
is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof,
for correction,
for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect,
throughly furnished unto all good works.
In your statement you said they were never given the torah.
What are you thinkin'? Paul went around tearing those pages outta their books?
He did not have a phobia against the law.
You should pay a little more attention to Galatians.
The law did not void the covenant nor was it against it.
17 And this I say , that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in
Christ,
the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after,
cannot
disannul ,
that it should make the promise of none effect .
21 Is the law then
against the promises of God?
God forbid
Maybe yer beginnin' to recognize the Spirit when you hear it.
this does not disprove my point, Paul said faith, and salvation, he did not stress law, did he? Lets not forget 1 Timothy, where he did not want the law teachers, coming to epehsus, he said the law is NOT for the just in 1 Tim 1,the same ephesus where Timothy was, where he said the jewish law was abolished in 2:15. So lets go by what he told
Timothy elsewhere also.
Ok, lets look at the emphasis here>>
We know faith righteousness is of Paul, not works. yes?
2 Tim 3:15 and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the
sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through
faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in
righteousness,
You do know Paul said his gospel was in the OT all along, don't you, in Rom 1:2 the same
writings as 2 Tim 3:15, and chapter 16, etc? You do know he used Abraham, the man of FAITH righteousness, out of genesis, and
his gospel of Gal; 3:8, quoting gen 12:3?
