    A P O C R Y P H A : Included in every Holy Bible from the 4th century AD to the 19th Century AD

    No officially defined canon for the holy scriptures existed until the church defined one. But an informal canon existed in the manuscripts' contents.

    A P O C R Y P H A : Included in every Holy Bible from the 4th century AD to the 19th Century AD

    I much prefer a 73 book bible over a 66 book one. But I do own several 66 book bibles, things like the NKJV and NIV, both of which are not available with a full 73 book canon. But if Protestants want 66 book bibles that's fine with me. At least they have some of the bible to read and that can...

    TOBIT -by NathanH83

    Pilgrim's Progress is a nice work of fiction. Some say Tobit is also a work of God-inspired fiction. But Protestants can do whatever they please with their bibles - printed or electronic. Catholics will keep the faith that was delivered to them and retain a 73 book canon for sacred scripture.

    Catholic Church definition of the canonical scriptures.

    A P O C R Y P H A : Included in every Holy Bible from the 4th century AD to the 19th Century AD

    That isn't quite right. questioning the use of the deuterocanon for teaching doctrine was debated but inclusion in the bible was the norm. Catholic bibles both before and after the Protestant revolt contained 73 books. Interestingly Protestant bibles also contained more than 66 books after the...

    A P O C R Y P H A : Included in every Holy Bible from the 4th century AD to the 19th Century AD

    Protestants can do whatever they like with the 66 books that they acknowledge and the others that they call apocryphal. That is a matter for them. Catholics have a 73 book canon of scripture that is well defined and has roots back to early Christian times. In the Catholic church debate and...

    A P O C R Y P H A : Included in every Holy Bible from the 4th century AD to the 19th Century AD

    Catholic and Orthodox Churches both receive these books as canonical: Tobit, Judith, parts of Esther, 1& 2 Maccabees, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, parts of Daniel. Protestants reject these as non-canonical. Protestant rejection runs deep enough to exclude these books and parts of books from their...

    John 10:33

    John 1:1-3 doesn't say that the Word came to earth. That is said in John 1:14. John 1:1-5 tells the reader that the Word is God and that the Word created everything that was created. The verses also say that Life was in him and that Life was the Light of humanity.
