Really?  So far you have only come across the one in Peter, and three texts from John?  So if you come across something you don't understand, you relegate it to a lower level of inspiration, that needs to be corrected.  That's extraordinary! 

Thank you for calling me extraordinary. And I don't relegate it to a lower level. You do. You said it, not me.

I don't mean to put words in your mouth.  You said it was not "on a part with the totality of Scripture".  How is that not relegating it to a lower level?  This seems synonymous to me.  What's the difference?

Christ exalted the character of God, attributing to him the praise, and giving to him the credit, of the whole purpose of his own mission on earth,--to set men right through the revelation of God.

The difference is that what you said "on a part with the totality of Scripture" is not what I said.

Do you mean "part" instead of "par"?  That's just a typo.  You said that it was not "on a par with the totality of Scripture".  How is that not relegating it to a lower level?

It's you who makes the level, not me. And you have explained how. I respect your position. Respect mine.

You're not answering the question.  You wrote that what Peter and John wrote is not on a par with the totality of Scripture.  This is accurate, right?  I mean, I know this is what you wrote.  Is that what you meant to say?

And since his confession requirement is not at par with what was revealed to Him in Revelation, that confession statement is at par with his "no man has seen God at anytime" statement. But that does not mean all he has written are not at par with the totality of Scriptures.

Just like Peter when he wrote of Christ preaching to disobedient spirits in prison in the days of Noah. That does not make all that Peter wrote to be not at par with the totality of Scriptures.

This is what you wrote.  Do you know what "not at par with the totality of Scriptures" means?  It means "not at the level of the rest of the Scriptures".  Is this what you meant to say?  What you actually wrote requires different levels.  If that isn't what you meant, please say what you meant in some other way.
