Catholic Bible Versions
Are Catholics and Protestants both gambling that their bible versions are the true word of a god?
Both the Catholics and Protestants emphatically claim their bibles are the true word of a god but both versions of the bible are different. Not a lot different but the Catholic bible has seven more books than the Protestant bible. So this means that the Protestants are gambling that their god won’t mind them taking seven books out when they made their version of the bible and the Catholics are gambling that their god thinks those seven books are necessary; so these are two directly contradicting belief scenarios, right? If one is right then the other can only be wrong?
What you fail to understand Desiree is that the Bible is about the Church the Church is not about the Bible. The fullness of teaching remains within the Church and not from a book that gets its only authority from the Church. The Church did just fine for 400 years without a Canon of Scriptures. Jesus never taught us to write Scriptures or to canonize the Bible but it was done to combat heresy and quantify inspired writings. It was the teaching authority of the Church that decided that the Bible would be helpful for teaching when studied and understood within the community of the Church that produced it. God bless!

The Catholic Church and the Bible $11.95 Are Catholics biblical illiterates? So goes the frequent question, proving that myths die hard. But Catholics ought to be able to answer the charge made by many non-Catholics in this regard. This book is a response to Fundamentalist critics and an explanation of the Catholic biblical tradition. The Catholic Church and the Bible is a significant scriptural study guide, published from a Catholic perspective and particularly keyed to the new Catechism of the Catholic Church. The well-planned, straight-forward text is clearly outlined to make information easy to find and understand. Main topics include: - The Catholic understanding of the Bible - God's Word and its purpose in the Church - A biblical theology of the Mass, the place of the Bible in the Sacred Liturgy - A question-and-answer section that deals with pertinent and popular inquiries made by Catholics and non-Catholics alike This work should be heartily welcomed by both clergy and laity, for Father Stravinskas sheds new light on Catholic Bible study by writing with candor, clarity and scriptural backing. This is ideal for high schools and RCIA programs. "An excellent tool for the Catholic apologist. The reader has everything in one place: pithy answers plus biblical and magisterial citations. Fr. Stravinskas is the best priest-apologist in the country." "Karl Keating, Author, Catholicism and Fundamentalism Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas is the well-known editor of the The Catholic Answer magazine, a contributing editor to National Catholic Register , and has written over 500 articles for numerous Catholic publications. |
