Bible Today
Why doesn’t God add to the Bible today?
After all these years is the Bible really considered complete by God until the so-called Apocalypse? Why doesn’t he “dictate” anything new to someone living now? Why not add an appendix or an addendum perhaps? Some further readings might be helpful.
Maybe he does. Joe Smith (if that is his real name) thought so. The Baha'i faith thinks God is always sending new messengers to update the message as times and cultures evolve. We won't know until five hundred, or a thousand years from now, what the collected, "inspired" canon may look like. When people wrote down the books that became the Bible, it wasn't for hundreds of years until folks decided which ones to count as "inspired" and which ones to leave by the wayside.

With Us Today $14.95 The years following the Second Vatican Council have witnessed a crisis of faith in Christ Jesus' Real Presence in the Eucharist. Lacking the faith that Jesus is truly, physically present in the Eucharist, Catholics today are often unable to understand the purpose of the Mass and of the ordained priesthood. Fr. Hardon discusses the serious implications of this decreasing faith in the Real Presence and how it is linked to the crisis in the priesthood today. ' In With Us Today , Fr. Hardon: ' ' Examines the history of Eucharistic doctrine, particularly through the heresies that began in the tenth century and expanded in the Reformation period ' Concisely explains Church teaching about'transubstantation"the complete change of the substance of the bread and wine into Christ's Body and Blood. ' Explores how our devotion to the Holy Eucharist will transform all aspects of our relationship with Jesus ' ' With Us Today reminds all Catholics of the incredible gift we have in the Eucharist, and how each us of must share our faith in the Real Presence with others and be a part of the new era of Eucharistic devotion.
