Did Jesus ever command the Apostles to write one word of Scripture?

Question

If the Bible is the sole authority of Christian Theology, why is there not one quoted word by Jesus listed in the Bible to write a new Scripture in ink?

Answer 1

The easy answer is no. Nowhere in the text are there specific instructions for the Christian Bible to be written. Much of the "New Testament" however, is meant to replace traditions in the "Old Testament" or Hebrew Bible. Moses was given the Commandments at Sinai, and they existed as a tangible law for the Jews. As Jesus dispelled notions of what was necessary for the ritualistic element of a practiced religion new traditions and stories developed. The first Christians were sectarian Jews, and the Christian Bible - specifically the Gospels - are a collection of stories told in those small, home meetings.

The Christian Bible, the Gospels, is thought to have been written from different sources, which is why the Gospels of Matthew and Mark are similar, but Luke and John are slightly different. For example, the story of the Nativity is only in the Gospel of Matthew. It is also important to note that although the first of the Cannonical Gospels wasn't written until at least 60 years after the death of Jesus there are stories and ledgends about Jesus, as well as other prophets living around the same time as Jesus, before 60 C.E. and that many of these were not included by the Church when deciding upon the Connon.

Humans, since the dawn of the written word, have needed a base for law and doctrine. What does it matter if Jesus told his disciples to write down his words? The disciples, as well as many other people, were influenced by the word Jesus is thought to have spoken and wanted to remember and to spread those messages.

Just as Jesus saw himself as a reformer and his new laws were reformations of old laws, the early members of Christian groups saw their writings as amendments to the Hebrew Bible.

Answer 2

Jesus said that the Word of God would be published & preached to the ends of the world, and then the end will come.

Jesus said, "I AM the bread that came down from Heaven.".

All inspired scripture is good for personal, spiritual edification. That would mean the whole bible. The bible has God's fingerprints.

And people spoke moved by the Holy Spirit.

Jesus told John to write the book of this prophecy. Not to conceal it. John wrote ST. John, John 1-3, & Revelations, because Jesus told Him to. In John 21, He reveals himself as the beloved disciple & that He would not die for the good news like Peter & others would have to. His purpose was to write the prophecy found in the book of revelations.

Answer 3

before everything they don't be responsive to what to evangelise. They be responsive to a thank you to ask you to their church, or argue over scripture. they don't be responsive to Jehovah or Jesus. They surely don't have Jehovah's holy spirit no longer to show be responsive to what the dominion fairly is or that Jesus is the King now reigning. they ought to go away the preaching artwork to those that be responsive to what they are doing and are being knowledgeable to evangelise. As one suggested, the church homes won't be able to agree on something. Jehovah isn't a God of bewilderment yet an prepared God. They study the bible yet do no longer understand the bible. Jehovah has no longer opened himself to them.

Answer 4

The bible wasn't written until long after jesus died.

If he ever existed.
