Grant it, its from one who is a pastor of a local body... thoughts.
Peter would most assuredly disagree with this "pastor" and says so most clearly as he was inspired to do so by the Holy Spirit:

2 Peter 3:15-16 (ASV) "And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote unto you; as also in all [his] epistles, speaking in them of these things; wherein are some things hard to be understood, which the ignorant and unstedfast wrest, as [they do] also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction."
1. Peter mentions Paul by name...
2. Peter equates Paul's writings with the other "scriptures", which undoubtedly refers at least to the entire Old Testament which they all affirmed, including Jesus Christ, are the very words of God Himself.
