    The cross reference to the worker is worthy of his wages would more likely come from Deuteronomy 24 seeing as how Paul quotes from Deuteronomy 25 a sentence before. And Luke 10 is also quoting from Deuteronomy 24 and this is not unusual as both Jesus and Paul source the OT occasionally. Using a primary source that should be considered a secondary source is an error here.
    The evidence in 2 Peter is weak as Peter could have just meant that Paul's writings and scripture are misunderstood. Even the word "scripture" in this context is debatable. Add to it that most Biblical scholars do not believe Peter, himself, wrote this letter but someone from his school of thought much later. And then which letters of Paul are 2 Peter even referring to?
    While there are some Early Church Fathers that refer to NT writings, they don't press upon the importance of the NT as a whole as if this was determined in the 1st century. This is where Sola Scriptura falls flat because there was not much urgency to form a Biblical canon and Sola Scriptura could not have functioned correctly up until the 4th century. Also, the canon was determined at the Council of Rome in 382.

    Why in the world wouldn’t the authors just simply state when, where, and who wrote the damn thing? We write date, name, and purpose for the most banal of things, why wouldn’t a scribe write this very important and relevant data on the extremely painstaking feet of drafting a new copy of “the scripture”? It makes no sense.

      The christians decided that. The people who read them decided that. And now we know that there's no older alternative than the NT. And most things that COULD have entered canon are still available as well as respected as well as read at least by the Orthodox and the Catholics. They are called First and Second Epistles of Clement, Epistle of Barnabas, Didache and Shepherd of Hermas.
      Another point revisionists such as yourself like to skip (or are unaware) is the fact that gnostics DID read and DID use many NT books, like the four gospels and majority of Pauline epistles. If you actually care and if you're actually interested in this topic you would've found out this, it's not something Vatican is hiding in their basement behind locked doors.
      PS. Muratorian canon, St. Iraneus, Tertullian, Origen or St. Athanasius aren't Bible or part of Bible, just fyi

      I am no scholar on this subject, but when you listen to the weather forecast tonight or any other, I bet you wouldn't hear anyone say "you can expect the earth to rotate such that the sun be seen on the horizon at about 6am". No, they will say something like "the sun can be expected to rise at about 6am". What I'm getting at is the way we describe things by the way we observe them. That is what we do even today in any literature (except maybe those explaining the observation - scientific textbooks etc), and that is what even the writers of the bible did. The same can be said about the "immovability" of the earth - with regards to us (observers) the earth certainly is immovable and fixed, but I'm even not convinced that the writers were implying the latter argument either. In the context of the texts one can see they are not trying to teach us something about the physical motion of the earth, but rather that the God who made them set them up as is, and no one can alter the mighty works of the Creator. In other words, the writers tries to focus the attention on the Creator, not the creation.
      Hope it makes sense :)
      Kind regards

      @@charlsmit3490 - that's an interesting theory and I appreciate you chiming in. God's word is filled with direct teachings about who God is, who we are, a picture of a perfect creation, the fall of man, the redemption of man, and sharp details about the end of our age.
      Biblical words have descriptive meanings and authoritative power. We have to approach biblical statements with a certain literacy that automatically associates a literal meaning or concept. This is how we can trust the word of God with its literal, direct teachings about important doctrinal issues.
      I believe, that we can trust God's word when it describes the earth. I also believe we can understand the earth's behavior and its surroundings with how the bible describes our earth as a circular, flat plane, fixed on a non-moveable foundation, encased in a closed dome. The sun is the greater light, the moon, the lesser light move while the earth stands still.

    The same Church authority in Peter the rock that stood up and put an end to all the debating at the council in Jerusalem, since Scripture alone could not, is the same Church authority that later determined which of the over 75 letters written were to be included in the new testament and which were not. Peace always in Jesus Christ our great and kind God and savior, He whose Flesh is true food and blood true drink

    Dr.. you said that Jesus was born with the Virgin's Mary DNA, therefore she would have to been born without original sin, because if she had been conceived with with original sin our Lord Jesus Christ would have been born with sin, and He is God and cannot have sin, and since God is God nothing is impossible for him.

    • @graftme3168

      The Bible teaches that sin is inherited through Adam, not Eve. It is the man who passed sin to his offspring, not the woman. Simple. And, Eve was NOT sinless, as the Bible makes clear, that ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Mary was NO exception. Jesus was the only person without sin because He was not born of an "Adam", but of God.
