I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cast doubt on Paul. I have just always found it interesting that in the ensuing 2,000 years no one else that has written inspired words has been included in what we call “the Bible€ and why protestants in particular exclusively use a book assembled by a group of catholics (with the exception of the exclusion of the apocryphal cannons which were excluded) which they proclaim don't have a monopoly on revelations in regards to God.

Why haven't any of the obviously God inspired writings (especially of protestants) of the greatest Christians of the last 2,000 years been added?

Because there are not any?

“why protestants in particular exclusively use a book assembled by a group of catholics”

There was no Roman Catholic Church in 200AD. It came later, but the large bulk of the New Testament was accepted as scripture before 200 AD.

You've got to be kidding...PolyCarp was as Protestant as they come...There wasn't a Catholic bone in his body...

We are all aware of the countless forgeries perpetrated by your religion when it comes to its written history...It's more than just a little weird when it's clear the early church fathers were scripture alone adherents and yet we see little tidbits of Catholicism thrown in to obviously gain some foothold...

You take out all the Catholic forgeries from Ignatius, he sounds pretty Protestant to me...
