Concerning Scripture, context matters.
Anyone can make Scripture support whatever strange teaching they want with one or two out of context quotes… and they often have and they still do… all the time. Scripture is clear and warns about Scripture twisting and quoting out of context. Ironically it’s one of the reasons some of the scribes and Pharisees of Jesus’ day were rebuked.
Everything Jesus did/said supported the accuracy and authenticity of Scripture - the same Scripture we have today (Dead Sea Scrolls predate Jesus). And He also said many times that He had other sheep (not of His flock/Israel) that He would gather in to His flock. He explicitly sent His followers to go to the Gentiles and to the ends of the earth and to make other disciples.
However, even very early on (the New Testament discusses this thoroughly), the true faith was being corrupted by agents of the evil one - who appear as ministers of light. And political Christianity under Constantine, the Holy Roman Empire and subsequent European regimes have carried on that corruption. So much so that it is difficult for anti-theists to separate true faith from the hypocrisy.
The evil one can’t create. He only twists what is good to deceive and give excuses to hard-hearts to avoid the good.
Again - a few snippets of truth mixed in with presuppositions and negative emotions is not and will never be the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
“All Scripture is god-breathed” (2 Tim. 3:16) and “No Scripture is of private interpretation,” (2 Pet. 1:20) but Scripture must interpret Scripture. Context matters.
