RE>>So what did Paul really mean. That should be the approach. <<

Amen - unfortunately the approach you are using will never take you there.

2 Peter 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things;
(the same things Peter was speaking - BV)
in which are some things hard to be understood,
which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest,
as they do also the other scriptures,

unto their own destruction.

Yes SOME (not most) of the things Paul said were (past tense) hard to understand
but they were understood by most Christians
it was the UNSTABLE who refused to be taught
that did not - to their own destruction.

They were not understood by the unteachable Sidney

In other words - the bible was not a mystery to the elect of that day.

Can you not answer this question:
