Why does the Catholic Church not re-examine the books in the Bible considering many Gospels that were left out?
A:By and large, the teachings of the Catholic Church are based on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and, to a lesser extent, John. It was therefore natural to select these as the gospels to be included in the Catholic-Orthodox canon. The other gospels differ in important ways from Catholic teaching and could never be considered for inclusion in the Catholic Bible. Also, although no gospel was really written by any of the early apostles, the other gospels were all written later than the gospels now in the New Testament, with the possible exception of the Gospel of Thomas. Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church considers the Revelation of God to be complete in the person of Our Blessed Lord, therefore It considers the end of Revelation to be at the death of the last Apostle. At that time, public Revelation, of which the Bible is a part, was complete and can never be added to, or changed. The Catholic Church does not have the authority from God to re-examine the books of the Bible.
