I admit the bible is made up of many books those from the torrah the jewish faioth and those selcted by the church over a century ago as having the deepest meaning. I find it talks to me God can speak through it. non have been taken out. the catholic church has some in the general church do not accept but any one can read them I have a copy . king James was one of the first translations but I do noty believe it is the best or most acurate I like the compleat Jewush bible but have others, even king James now 3 I was given anothert for christmas.

Their are other versions.Please name the books you believe are left out.You are far from being educated enough on the subject to condemn the text.The mouth and fingers work ,to bad the brain does not.
Look up the Gnostic texts and the age they were written and you will find why they were excluded.The book of Enoch can not be validated but is very interesting to read.You are free to seek more knowledge than that in the King James version but you should be aware that a King put his resources behind the compilation and veracity of the work.

The Old Testament is generally accurate. Jesus Himself often quoted from it and used it as His own teachings, noteabley when He was teaching in hte Temple at either Capernaum or among the Jewish scholars of Jerusalem.
But, you are correct. There are many other writings that have been written and promoted as being sacred scripture.
Their deletion from the collated texts of what we now know as "The Bible" was due to many factors, and done by Bible scholars of the time.
Texts that were of dubious origin and questionable authorship were deleted as potential frauds.
Texts that were in blatant disagreement with the texts known to be authentic were deleted due to heretical teachings.
Texts that altered history were deleted, for the sake of purity and accuracy.
Texts that incorporated mythology were deleted due to their incorporation of "other spirtitual beliefs" more personal in nature rather than unequivocally supported by scriptural doctrine(s).
Some of those texts MAY be noteworthy and useful for issues of faith, but with authentication being impossible or questionable, the King James Version cuts all the "possibilities" down to 66 books by 40 authors whose origin and authenticity are beyond reproach.
Some of the the deleted texts are compiled and used under the heading of the Appochrypha. They are incorporated into the Bible almost exclusively by the Roman Catholic Church.
Other texts deemed unreliable by Catholic and Protestant churches are set aside and become the fodder for much debate and questions about the authenticity of the Bible itself.
We are assured of the authenticity of the King James text. Those of the Appochrypha are somewhat suspect, but respectedand not without benefit under the traditions of Rome.

I remember reading some where that parts of the bible might have been written by a woman - would that change anything for you if that was true?
Good Luck!!!

Excellent question! It was written by men, and lots of it was left out, for political purposes, and those political purposes were in no way Godly!

Not only that, but it's a mixture of books that don't even go together. Which is why it makes no sense when you try to read it.
