Roman Catholic AnswerThe Gospels in the Bible are Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The "Catholic Bible" is the Bible as used by the Church for two millenium.
Roman Catholic AnswerFunny thing about that, the Catholic Church wrote and approved the Bible, all approved Bibles are "Catholic Bibles". Without the Catholic Church there would be no Bible today. The only non-Catholic Bibles are protestant Bibles, and the only difference in them, is that they have removed some books from the Old Testament with which they did not agree. So, to answer your question, of course the Bible includes the book of Leviticus.
Catholic read the Bible literally and it applied to the church Magisterium and the The Cathechism of the Catholic church.They showed it to their actions and their faith.
We were just in a hotel room where I actually read the Gideon Bible in the drawer. I noticed that it was a King James Version. Because of the history of strained politics between the Vatican and England, it's safe to say that the King James Version is not a Catholic Bible. Regardless, I'm sure the Gideons would not object if a Catholic were to read their Bible.
To ignore things that may affect their faith.That makes no sense. They are ignoring God's words. There are many scriptures in the Bible that say true Christians are not under the law at all...no law of any kind. The church claims these scriptures mean the opposite to what they say, and will not discuss them. The church has its traditions, and will uphold them at all costs, even over the Bible..Catholic AnswerIf you are referring to the Catholic Church, Catholics believe that the Catholic Church is what Our Blessed Lord founded to save all men throughout all time. That CHURCH wrote the Scriptures (The New Testament) throughout the first hundred years after Our Blessed Lord left His Church in charge. Then in the late fourth century, the Catholic Church, through Her pope and Bishops drew up the canon of Scripture. The Catholic Church CANNOT ignore any Scriptures, nor, for that matter, can any Scriptures not fit with Tradition. ALL Scripture came out of Tradition, and the Church, by its very commission from God must uphold both, which is why it cannot countenance the protestant heresies which ignore Tradition, and mutilate the Scriptures.
YesRoman Catholic Answerfrom The Catechism of the Catholic Church, second edition, English translation 1994141 "The church has always venerated the divine Scriptures as she venerated the Body of the Lord" (Dei Verbum) 21): both nourish the govern the whole Christian life. "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path" (Ps 119:105; cf. Isa 50:4).
The official Bible version used by the Catholic Church is the New American Bible (NAB).
The term 'catholic' in this sense means 'universal.' In that the Bible is worldwide, it Is catholic. This has nothing to do with the Catholic Church.
The version of the Catholic Bible that is considered the most widely used and accepted by the Catholic Church is the New American Bible (NAB).
Roman Catholic AnswerYou have this a little confused. First of all, when you are asking about the "Roman" Church, I assume that you are asking about the Catholic Church. Secondly, if you are asking about the Catholic Church, then please realize that the Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ. The Church, as in the Pope and the Bishops are not capable of making a decision as to placing anything on the same level as the Bible, the Church only receiveswhat It believes from God, and It must follow what It has received. Finally, read your history, the Catholic Church wrote the Bible in the first century as part of Its preaching, had two Councils and a Pope decided which books belong in the Bible in the fourth and fifth century, and has carefully preserved the Sacred Scriptures from error since then. The Sacred Scriptures which are the very Word of God (Jesus Christ) in the Words of God is part of the Sacred Tradition that Our Blessed Lord gave Her to teach to the people everywhere at all times.
The "best" Bible is the one that you use. The official Bible for the Catholic Church is the New Vulgate, an updating of St. Jerome's Latin translation of the Sacred Scriptures. The Old Testament is the Septuagint, the Greek translation that Our Blessed Lord used, and is used for most of the quotes in the New Testament. The official New Testament is the the New Vulgate.
The Catholic Church primarily uses the New American Bible (NAB) for liturgical readings and study.
Catholic AnswerThere is no "Protestant Bible". The Bible translation most commonly used by protestants is the Authorized Version, commonly known as the King James Version, which is the name of a translation of the Bible. The Bible is a whole collection of books, and as such does not have a name. The early Church used the Septuagint for their Old Testament, and had many different scrolls in Latin and Greek for their New Testament Scriptures. The first "official" Bible, as in one continuous book was The Vulgate which was a translations of all the Scriptures by St. Jerome in the fourth century. The closest thing that the Catholic Church has in English is the Douay-Rheims translation, which was made about the same time as the Authorized Version.
THe Gideon International Bible is most certainly not a Bible approved by the Catholic Church.
The New American Bible is the Bible which was translated for and is the official Bible of the Catholic Church in the United State, yes, it carries a the Bishops Imprimatur and Nihil Obstat.
