Default Re: The Psalms are the word of Christ

Paul called psalms the "word of Christ" in Colossians 3:16. I don't see him anywhere adding, or even alluding, that some psalms were natural and fallen, and some psalms were divinely revelatory.

The author of Hebrews quotes psalms (and other parts of the OT) and says, "...we see Jesus"(2:9). Lee said, in effect, "No you don't; you see a natural, fallen man's concepts". Where does the author of Hebrews indicate such a thing?

Jesus said, "These things were written concerning Me" in Luke 24:44... where does He or anyone indicate that some of the law, psalms, and prophets was to be dismissed as irrelevant, or only presented as cautionary exceptions "to show us what God doesn't want"...?

Who are you going to believe: the words of Jesus, Paul, and Hebrews, or the words of Lee?
