The Word of God is Jesus. The Bible reveals God’s word and God’s nature. The Bible consists of 73 God-breathed books

I intentionally use the lower case ‘word’ in ‘word of God’, which is identically equal to God’s word, at least in the English language.

Yes, Jesus IS the Word, but the Holy Scriptures are called the word of God. It is the only offensive weapon in our spiritual armor, the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And you besmirch the true word of God by including those seven apocryphal books as "God-breathed" which NEVER claimed to be the word of God, contain many errors and were NOT viewed by anyone in the early church as Divinely-inspired. If you're honest you will admit it wasn't until the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century that the Catholic church officially deemed them (erroneously) as inspired and equally canonical - and we all know WHY they did that.

“The Bible consists of 73 God-breathed books”

Do those 7 books belong in the Old or New Covenant?

If they are Old Covenant theology how exactly does that pertain to a New Covenant Christian?

If they are New Covenant books please explain this...
How are they New Covenant when they are clearly before Jesus Christ was manifested in the flesh at Bethlehem?

What theological significance such as salvation, heaven, or hell do they bring to the New Covenant that wasn’t clearly explained in our current New Testament?

I have asked this question several times before and never get and answer, so are you just a mouth piece or can you answer it?

Please help me to understand why you rcc’s hang on to those 7 books like they contain the ultimate secrets to eternal life or eternal hell.
