How was Scripture involved? Did the man witness to you out of the Scriptures - showing you proofs of his teaching from them? What convinced you that Scripture was true and exclusive

I discovered much later that our very brief conversation was almost exactly Acts 16:31 but he didn't give the reference, he just gave a very simple biblical answer to a simple question. The supernatural parts were where the Lord caused me to care enough to ask the question, then He allows the testimony from one man to another, then I believed as I was predestined to do.

Did you get baptized soon after, like in Acts?

No. I didn't even start reading the bible for a year or two. Then shortly after I got baptized.

So, would you say that you needed the Scriptures then, in order to fulfill your responsibilities as a Christian, or do you feel that you fulfilled them in that Scriptureless year?

I don't get the question. What do you mean by fulfulling responsibilities as a Christian?

I will say that as a new born Christian I didn't grow much at all in my first year or 2. I didn't start to grow until I got into fellowship, read the bible, and got discipled.
