Here are some questions I am considering: Why is Paul's theology presented only is personal letters --- a style of presentation not found in First Testament scripture. Why is it not systematic in nature?
And ---- why does no NT writer quote Jesus in support of his individual theologies and admonitions. I would expect to find something to the effect of ---- "Jesus while on this earth, presented to us the very advice I am giving to you now. It is He who is the author and finisher of our faith -- my words are only a mirror of His earthly and present ministry." Seems reasonable to expect such wording. Not there at all. John --- bounding about in the wilderness of thought and wonderment. ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
