In fact, Paul taught almost exclusively from scripture, in other words, the TaNaK, and scripture that the Pharisees rejected from their Canon.Why most Christians follow the Canon of the Pharisees, instead of all the scripture that Yahshua and his disciples taught from, is another subject. I should probably start a thread on that too.
Which evil are we discussing?
So lets define what sin is:Sin.
(CLV) 1Jn 3:4
Everyone who is doing sin is doing lawlessness also, and sin is lawlessness.
Now you take away, denying that it is even Scripture? It doesn't matter if Paul thought it to be Scripture, it was inspired by the Holy Spirit. Yet here you add to it commentary so that you may nullify it, and then deny that it is Scripture.Do you mean adding commentary to Paul's commentary?
When Paul wrote that letter; he didn't consider it to be scripture. What he considered to be scripture can be found in the TaNaK.
I ask you again, which of the 8 laws that I listed, which are found in that letter, do you suppose that Paul is saying that we are released from?
Hint: If you believe that Paul is releasing us from the Law of YHWH, that Yahshua spent his entire ministry preaching; you might want to guess again.

John already did that for us.

Jesus gave his life for "his neighbors."
He lived the Golden Rule.
They aint no TaNaK in that that I can see.
The author of Hebrews never said that the Torah is vanishing away.
That would contradict Yahshua.
(CLV) Mt 5:18
For verily, I am saying to you, Till heaven and earth should be passing by, one iota or one serif may by no means be passing by from the law till all should be occurring.
So lets think a bit deeper and wider:
James 4:17
So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.
Genesis 4:7
If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it.”
John 8:34
Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin. (Ex. If you lie, you become a slave to that lie)
James 1:14
But each person is tempted when he is lured (away from doing what he feels is right) and enticed by his own desire.
While what you say is absolutely true, (The Law has not been taken away) it is we who have been taken away from the Law.
Rom_7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
Gal_2:19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
Paul didn't have a copy of any of the Gospels when he wrote that. He also did not have the benefit of studying under Yahshua during Yahshua's ministry. Paul taught primarily from the TaNaK.Lots of stuff is inspired by lots of stuff.
Everything in the New Testament was written to people who didn't have a copy of the New Testament to use for application. So it was written to Spiritual babies, not Spiritual Grown Ups.
All offer salvation to anyone without a Bible.

However, I would by no means call him a spiritual baby.
Maybe not during Jesus ministry, but Paul was taught by Jesus personally, therefore technically he did study under Jesus.
I find that to be a curious statement; as you pulled all of them from a Bible.
Paul saw Jesus in a vision, at best.Maybe not during Jesus ministry, but Paul was taught by Jesus personally, therefore technically he did study under Jesus.
