Was Paul a trinitarin?
Post #1Paul wrote much of the Greek scriptures. Was his goal to teach the trinity?

You're still avoiding the question. Goodbye, you're on my ignore list now. I will no longer see your posts anymore.
Scholars considered NT as Scriptures as early as AD 200, long after Timothy died. See below with link.
So what they read during their lifetime is the Tanakh, Jewish Scripures.
That finds your "law and prophet" interpretation wrong.
Some scholars believe that the New Testament was considered scripture as early as AD 200.

Let us walk and talk:
Ok, let us continue the conversation, are you familiar with the Tanakh?
That is the question I wish the other could just answer yes or no.

It appears that some think scholars determine what is scripture and when it becomes scripture. But I say that scripture is scripture the moment it is written, why is it some dude hundreds of years later get to determine when something is scripture? Even if he does say something is scripture 200 hundred years after it was written, doesn't that make the letter scripture retroactively? Meaning, when Paul wrote his letters they were immediately holy scripture. So when Paul wrote 2 Timothy 3:16 he was talking about even his own writings because he knew that he wasn't the source of what was written. Paul knew he was writing scripture, didn't he? Didn't the 'scholar' determine what Paul wrote was from God? Didn't Paul tell people what he wrote was from God and not from him?

"Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, unto the brethren which are in Corinth, greeting."
My pronouns are he, him, and his.
