The first text writings of the Catholic Church which we still have were gathered into a book at the end of the fourth century, we call it the New Testament.

How did the word bible belt come to be?

The southern portion of the United States, traditionally contained, and to this day contains pastors who teach biblical text to church goers. In Northern church systems, most are structured like the Catholic church and do not teach biblical text. These structured church systems teach from the book of common prayer and weekly sermons, expounded upon by the priest. Therefore the people who learn from traditional, southern church pastors are very knowledgable of the biblical text.


What bible does the Greek catholic church use?

The Greek Catholic Church uses the same Bible editions that the other Catholic churches use (i.e. the churches in communion with the see of Rome - -Roman Catholic, Syrian Catholic, Ruthenian Catholic, Maronite, etc.). In the Greek Language this is the Septuagint for the Old Testament, and the original koineGreek text, sometimes called the Textus Receptus or Received Text by Biblical scholars. In English, in the United States, the main text used is the New American Bible. Also used in different times, places and contexts, are the Catholic Edition of the Revised Standard Version, the Jerusalem Bible, the Douay-Reims-Challoner version, the Ronald Knox Translation (now sadly out of print), and perhaps for teaching purposes, the Catholic Edition of the Good News Bible, which is more paraphrase than translation. The Catholic (both Roman Catholic and Greek Catholic) canon of the Old Testament includes not only the books found in most Protestant editions of the Old Testament, but also the Deuterocanonical Books. The Deuterocanonical Books are found in the Septuagint in Greek, but are not found in the Hebrew Masoretic text.


How did the christian account try to arouse sentiment against Muslim treatment of the christian religion?

Answer 1If you are referring to the Crusades, that was a failed venture by the Catholic Church. For good reason. Christians do not go out to kill people. They turn the other cheek, treat everyone with respect and love their enemies. The Catholic Church did not follow the basic doctrines of the church of Christ. Christ died for a kingdom of decent people, not angry killers.Christians did not try to arouse sentiment against Muslims. The Catholic Church did.Answer 2This question seems to be looking for a textual analysis, but does not provide the particular text, so any discussion is bound to be overbroad or not necessarily in-line with the text's views.
