Howls of derisive laughter, Bruce...
The Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church is the One True Church of Jesus Christ, founded by him and promised to keep it going regardless of those opposed to it. We put the Bible together under the guidance of the Holy Spirit; we expended tremendous priestly manpower over the centuries before Gutenberg to hand copy it page by page, bind it, and send it out to the whole world.
I know that it is a common anti Catholic practice to say that we want to get rid of the Bible, but even casual observance puts the lie to that. I would remind all that the Catholic Bibles are whole. Protestant Bibles (including the King James) are normally incomplete.
Defies history...Your bible version was not accepted by God's chosen people, the Jews...If your apocrypha wasn't in the Jewish bible, your Bible could not have been inspired by the Holy Spirit...
The Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church is the One True Church of Jesus Christ, founded by him and promised to keep it going regardless of those opposed to it.
If you ever figured out the difference between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of God, you'd see the error of your ways...Peter was given the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven, not the Kingdom of God...
But then, you'd have to study the bible without the influence of your church...Unlikely that'd happen...
Who's "Bruce"?
Wow --- incomplete --- without those apocryphal books that even Jerome rejected. That must explain why as late as 1950 the King James Bible, used by Bishop Challoner to revise the Douay Rheims, was still on the Vatican's List of Forbidden Books. The Vatican really has a spuriously skewed standard.
