Well now if Christ were speaking here then the Book of Revelation would be the Gospel of Revelation wouldn’t it?

The Angel told John what to write, and so he spoke the words given by Christ.

Christ never told his disciples to write Scripture, he told them to teach and preach all that I have taught you.

At a different time in Revelation and angel did command John to write some things down.

But here in chapter 1, it's Jesus Himself.

It's there in plain clear words and if you have an issue with that, then therer's really nothing anyone can say to convince you.

If the word of God doesn't do it, nothing else will.

Admitting you were wrong is not the and of the world. It's the end of pride and self-deception.

Which words in Scripture are contrary to what the Apostles taught?

“Christ never told his disciples to write Scripture...”

Considering most of what went on between Christ and His disciples wasn’t recorded, how do you figure you can say that you know that to be true?

And quite interesting that for that claim, you’re relying on what was recorded in the very Scripture that you say that you know Christ didn’t tell them to write.

And what is the point to your claim about New Testament Scripture? Are you saying you don’t believe it’s legitimately God’s Word?

Seriously, you wrote that?

Christ never told his disciples to write Scripture, he told them to teach and preach all that I have taught you.

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write this in a book as a memorial and recite it to Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven.” Exodus 17:14 NASB

Now the Lord said to Moses, “Cut out for yourself two stone tablets like the former ones, and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the former tablets which you shattered. Exodus 34:1 NASB

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.” Exodus 34:27 NASB

I will write on the tablets the words that were on the former tablets which you shattered, and you shall put them in the ark.’ Deut 10:2

Do not let kindness and truth leave you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart. Proverbs 3:3 NASB

but that we write to them that they abstain from things contaminated by idols and from fornication and from what is strangled and from blood. Acts 15:20 NASB

For we write nothing else to you than what you read and understand, and I hope you will understand until the end; 2 Corinthians 1:13 NASB

1Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile an account of the things accomplished among us, 2just as they were handed down to us by those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the word, 3it seemed fitting for me as well, having investigated everything carefully from the beginning, to write it out for you in consecutive order, most excellent Theophilus; 4so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught. Luke 1:1-4 NASB

13These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. 1 John 5:13 NASB

Not to mention all the other places in the NT and OT where people were either moved to write or told to write.

Guess these guys were just bored sitting around with nothing to do?

You seem to have failed to notice that Christ never told MARY to come to earth to teach the Catholic church things He OBVIOUSLY forgot to tell the Apostles.
