pauls writings are letters!but also they are inspired by holy spirit!becuaseit does say in peter in he was given wisdom(holy spirit) to do his writings...there is no shame in knowing that jesus called the law(exodous-deut)testimony(joshua-malacai)the scriptures.remember the passage in luke 4th chapter where he open the book of isaiah and read a scripture..and then told the crowd "today" this scripture i just read to you has been fulfilled.Again referring to these as the scriptures....i have know problem seeing the distinction...paul and peter also knew what the scripture were too.besides all of their writings were inspired also...but they were not the scriptures..i have come to appreciate that over the years..that is why jesus continually told his diciples if you want to know something abt me begin with moses...there is reason for that...i am not a scholar,but i find this to be true. this is my humble opinion,. | ||||||

This is a powerful message from Peter. Many Christians, (my humble opinion), place too much emphasis on the Pauline letters. They, like all of the Bible, are the inspired Word of God, but they are not Foundational Doctrine in and of themselves. Many cults primarily build their doctrine from Paul's writings, (i.e. the way international, not capitalized for emphasis). This passage from Peter was a warning..Paul mainly wrote "meat" and not "milk". He wrote in response to problems brought to his attention in these churches. How many times does he say, "I think.."? His letters are for advanced Christians, that have moved beyond "basics". Hebrews 5:12-14 discusses this. If a Christian is struggling with the "milk of the word", they are not ready for "meat". Paul's letters can be classified as "meat". They are after the Gospels, are they not? This is for a reason. Absorb, receive the Gospel, then move forward. Too many Christians, (per the warning of Peter), get bogged down in the Pauline letters and Revelation. Put these to the latter, and not former. Learn about the ministry of Christ, his plan of salvation, baptism, repentance, then move to "meat"..God bless.. | ||||||

Colossians 1, which Paul wrote, is one of the most profound revelations of how to pray. As Jesus stood firm when He was tempted to throw Himself down, I would not change my perspective on the authority of this book. | ||||||
