You countered that it was NT (
2 Cor 6) and for us, and that we (or possibly just ILG?) were faking knowledge of the scriptures.
I think countered that it IS found in the NT, but that Paul was simply quoting the OT to them. (i.e defending my knowledge of the scriptures, and that I'm not a faker).
That is all.
