2 Peter 1:21 For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
Peter made no mention at all of Catholicism in his letters nor did he credit the *church* with bringing the word of God to mankind.
Nor did Paul.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
Retroactively declaring all Christians as Catholics in an attempt to give credit to the Catholic church for the word of God is not going to convince anyone but Catholics because the rest of the world has not been brainwashed by Catholicism to believe their revisionist history over historic fact.
Nobody owes the Catholic church anything for their claims to have given the world the Bible and preserving it. All the credit goes to God who is more than capable of doing it Himself without being indebted to Catholicism for its *help*.
AMEN. From what I read around here, it seems the Catholics believe God owes them a debt of gratitude for bringing His Word to mankind. I suppose when He receives all the glory mankind has to give, He will turn around and give it all to the Catholic Church. After all, without them, where would we all be? Including God and His message..
Isn’t it strange that other Christian faiths have to admit (since they use the same canon) that the Catholic Church made an infallible decision when it decided which books of the New Testament are inspired and which ones aren’t, yet these same faiths reject the Canon of the Old Testament decided by the same Bishops in the same Councils? LOL.
