But what about Pope...

You heard it right!



There was always only “one” B

ible.

After the 16th century, there were many bibles!

I do not imagine you will find a single Catholic who agrees with you.

All after the canonization of The Holy Bible were the same book!

You’re talking about “language” translations, not religous translations.

Seriously, you are making this stuff up as you go…
What is the difference between a language and a religious translation?

 

[Rightlydivide]

Any translation of The Holy Bible is bothersome to me that deletes books, add and subtracts words to change scriptural meanings.

And even a broken clock is right twice a day. The Protestant copied “our” Bible and created their own translation.

Now wait, which KJV are you talking about?

Aren’t there 40 versions of the KJV?

Once again, what translation of the Bible is the Holy Bible??

When you say “religious” translations, you mean one “translation” used by the church? There were still different “translations” with different “books” use by the Catholics, Orthodox, Copts, Armenians, Syriac churches…that’s still more than one “religious” translation.

Absolutely. They still have different canons. That is basic history…I thought…

I thought so too…I’m not sure where 2ndGen was trying to go with their assertion…but it doesn’t match up to historical…anything…as far as I can understand…I await “correction” from 2ndGen on the matter.

I mean a translation that was specifically edited to promote the beliefs of a specific denomination with creative editorializing “de-sanctifying” books that they dont’ agree with.

That is what happened after the 16th century.

Before that, the Christian Bible was one Bible. Period (still is, but now, there are “versions” calling themselves Holy Bibles).

The only Bible that counts is the one that was canonized by The Church that Jesus started.

One is a translation from one language to another.

The other is a translation that’s edited to promote the specific tenets of the denomination that creates it and to reflect it’s unique views.

 

[2ndGen]

The Holy Bible has no translation.

It is just like The Church…One.

All other books that call themselves “bibles” are not The Holy Bible. They are “versions” of The Holy Bible that were tailored by the specific denomination that created them to promote their own brand of Christianity.

And which one was that…the one church in Armenia or Greece or Egypt or Rome? All still different apostolic churches and all with different bibles…at least three…still not a large number…but more than one…I think even the Latin Vulgate is different than the Greek version…and the Vulgate didn’t come upon the scene until the 4th century…so we have at least two…which are different…but not one.

You’re talking places.

I’m talking Bible.

How many “bibles” existed prior to the 16th century?

Only one.

The Holy Bible.

It was canonized in the 4th century.

It has always had 73 books.

It was always kept by the same Church that canonized it.

No, it has not always had 73 books…the Orthodox Greek canon, which is as old if not older than the Latin canon doesn’t support your claim.

Duh?

Their not The Church started by Jesus Christ?

Saint Andrew started their Church,
not Saint Peter!

I’m sure they’d be surprised to hear that their church wasn’t started by Jesus…the Church of the East has always had more books in their Bible than the church of the west…you might want to do some checking on it…

Now why would I want to investigate churches not started by Jesus?

Huh?

Not my business what they do.

That’s their business.

I have no reason to “protest” them.

I’m blessed.

I’m in The Church.

When you’re blessed,
you don’t stress what others lack
because you don’t know how happy
they may be making God.

Basically, as Christians, we are called to worry about our own selves.
