according to the roman church all the books in the bilbe were brought together by the same; but dosent the bible says "a kingdom cannot be divided by its own and revelation clearly judges the roman church as the whore, mother of abominations so how cold they bring out the bible knowing that revelation 17,18 would discredit them and clearly judging them as "the new babylon"

The Septuagint or the Greek translation of the Scriptures were used all over during the time of Christ. This book had the 7 books in it that the Protestants took out. Ask yourself why did the Protestants remove these 7 books that were in the Bible. It's clear that these books were used by St Paul even because some of his translations that he quotes makes no sense in the Arabic language but, it is word for word in the Septuagint. You should learn what your talking about before you spout such garbage.

One, the Roman Church didn't exist when Revelations was written, so it couldn't have been mentioned specifically. Two, Martin Luther and his fellow Protestants split the church, not the Catholics. It was their choice to leave.

The Roman church is just that and can do what they want.. Just concentrate on being a Bible believing Christian and follow God and not the Pope. Supposedly this is the next to last Pope so maybe the next one is the false prophet..

Catholics made the bible and Christianity, so they get to determine what is and what is not Christianity (since they invented it [and Protestants hijacked their religion and added the sola-scriptura heresy]). Since mainstream Christianity is divided (very much so) it means it's a phony religion (it, Christianity, is the "whore"). So what's real christianity? It's is the oldest, original and best: gnosticism.

Not the Roman Church, goofy. ROME. You know, the Empire that periodically persecuted Christians?
Save your polemic for somewhere else and learn your scripture.
