are there still books sealed? Does it have to do with the mystery of the Church?

The sepperation into books, chapters and verses was man's idea. Many of the books should have remained 1 book instead of being numbered as the first 2nd or third. Like 1 and 2 Corinthians, or 1 John, 2 John, 3 John... if they werent numbered like that, by man, there wouldnt be 66 books, there would be a good deal less.

There were a lot more than 66 books. The Catholic church decided some should be left out because it didn't fit with their beliefs. Just a little picky with God's Word aren't they?

I am a protestant, but I only buy Catholic Bibles. The puritans took too many REALLY GOOD books out of the Bible.
I think the Catholic Bible has about 71 or 72 books in it, rather than the Protestant 66.
