"Yeah, who was it who wrote the NT, protected it, and authorized it?"

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit inspired it but the select Apostles wrote it. The Holy Spirit has no arms.

The Catholic Church protected it and very carefully proclaimed, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, what needed to be in the NT. And yes, the Church authorized what books would be part of the canon.

It was a Catholic bishop about 700 years ago who decided that there should be Chapter and verse separation so that it would be easier to read.

The use of the word "Catholic" was introduced in the fourth century in order to differentiate between those groveling in heresy and those who stuck by the truth.

There is so much you guys do not know. As is everything that happened for 1500 years before Martin Luther was of no use to God.
