Is there scripture in addition to the Bible, Book of Mormon, and Koran?

Answer 1

Yes--and given your examples, I assume you don't mean just Judeo-Christian.

There are a number of scriptures--"books" that aren't included in the Bible (a general term for these used by some is the "Apocrypha).
The Jewish faith has the Talmud in addition to the Torah (Old Testament).
Hindus have the Ramayana, Bhaghvad-Gita (if I remember the spelling!), the Vedic Sutras, and other works. Buddism has the teachings of Budda on the Eightfld path. Other religions have their own scriptures as well.

Answer 2

Most world religions have scriptures: Hinduism has quite a few, as does Buddhism, and these vary depending upon the specific group.

The statement about adding to this book in Revelation mean the Book of Revelation, not the entire Bible.

Answer 3

Hindus have numerous including the Bhagavad-Gita. Buddhists (depending on the vehicle) have a lot as well including the Dhammapaha (by Buddha Shakymuni) , Bodhicaryavatara (by Shantideva), and the Tripitaka and there are many many more. Sikhism has the Guru Granth Sahib. Jains regard the Purvas as holy. And all of that is just southern Asia, mostly India. The list could go on an on because of how many religions there are in the world.

Answer 4

The Bible is Scripture. The Bible is about Jesus Christ and God's plan of salvation and the Book of Mormon and Koran are not.

Jesus quoted from 24 different Old Testament books.
The New Testament as a whole quotes from 34 books of the Old Testament Books. These 5 books are never quoted in the New Testament: Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon.
It is not significant that these books: Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, were never quoted in the New Testament, because they were part of "collections" of Old Testament books. Since other books within the same collection were quoted, this shows them too to be inspired.

The New Testament never quotes from the any of the apocryphal books written between 400 - 200 BC. What is significant here is that NONE of the books within the "apocryphal collection" are every quoted. So the Catholic argument that "the apocryphal books cannot be rejected as uninspired on the basis that they are never quoted from in the New Testament because Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon are also never quoted in the New Testament, and we all accept them as inspired."

The rebuttal to this Catholic argument is that "Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther" were always included in the "history collection" of Jewish books and "Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon" were always included in the "poetry collection". By quoting one book from the collection, it verifies the entire collection. None of the apocryphal books were ever quoted in the New Testament. Not even once! This proves the Catholic and Orthodox apologists wrong when they try to defend the apocrypha in the Bible.

The Law (Torah) - Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy

The Prophets (Neviim) - Joshua, Judges, 1 & 2 Samuel (one volume), 1 & 2 Kings (one volume), Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, the 12 Minor Prophets (one volume)

The Writings (Kethubim) - Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Ruth, Song of Solomon, Ecclesiastes, Lamentations, Esther, Daniel, Ezra and Nehemiah (one volume), 1 & 2 Chronicles (one volume)

Jesus, like all the Jews of the first century, divided the Old Testament into three "collections": the law, the prophets, the psalms. Jesus said: "These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled." (Luke 24:44)
Sometimes the sum of the Old Testament was referred to as two collections: the law and the prophets. Intestingly, Jesus referred to Psalm 82:6 as "Law": "Jesus answered them, "Has it not been written in your Law, ‘I said, you are gods’?" John 10:34. This may explain why most of the time there were two collections referred to as a sum for the whole.

"Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. Matthew 5:17
"For all the prophets and the Law prophesied until John. Matthew 11:13
"The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John; since that time the gospel of the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it. Luke 16:16
Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found Him of whom Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote esus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph." John 1:45
After the reading of the Law and the Prophets the synagogue officials sent to them, saying, "Brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say it." Acts 13:15
"But this I admit to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect I do serve the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets; Acts 24:14

Answer 5

The Bible is the word of God, and it testifies of Jesus Christ's ministry, of his organization of the church by appointing the 12 apostles and specifying the doctrine that is to be taught. It teaches us about the sacrifice that made it possible for us to return to our Father In Heaven--the atonement of Jesus Christ. It also teaches of God's unconditional love throughout the ages. It teaches what will happen if we do not obey God's commandment. It teaches that God covenants with His people. Yup. That's what I believe. As a Latter Day Saint, that's what I believe. I am wondering why you have exclusive use of the Bible? Isn't it meant for all of God's people--the whole world? And--if you even knew what you were talking about in regards to the Book of Mormon, you would see that it does not go against the Bible at all..

Answer 6

I agree with neil. Also we Mormons believe that the words of the modern day Prophets are scripture (uncannonized). We have been counseled time and again that the most important scripture for us (at the current time) are the words of the current Prophet (whomever he may be, but currently Gordon B. Hinckley). These can be found in the Ensign, a church magazine published monthly. Online versions can be found using the official church website, www.lds.org They can also be found in any books written by the President of the Church.

Answer 7

There is only the Bible for Scripture. Anything else is not.
The Book of Mormon is alleged to be "the most correct book on the face of the earth", but it does not support the doctrines of the LDS Church. The language that it was said to be written in does not exist. The evidence of what was translated by the prophet is not with him! (Pearl of Great Price)

Answer 8

Despite what fanatics of some particular religion will have you believe, there is not just 'one truth'--- 'one scripture'--- and all else is wrong.
God loves ALL His children and will try to reach and speak to them all--- different times, different languages, different situations--- Basically the same message: "I love you and want you to love Me.... And love one another."
There are many ancient scriptures called the Vedas, Puranas, etc. Bhagavad Gita was first spoken 5,000 years ago.
As others pointed out--- there are Buddist scriptures, etc.
In addition, even actual Bible scholars must admit that the Bible was once quite different than it is now--- and anyone who says only 'wise men' edited it are in major denial about the history of the Popes who actually directed certain books to be deleted, words changed etc.--- and why they did it.
There is no fault in centering oneself in one spiritual path--- in fact, it is very desirable to do so. But it is a grave error to state "this is the only way"--
Old rule of thumb when testing the truth of things: "Follow the money" (or power). There are advantages for leaders of religions to tell their innocent and ignorant followers that all else is wrong and they will go to eternal damnation if they do not pledge full loyalty and service to --name your sect--.
Jesus said "You will know the tree by its fruit"

Answer 9

There a several different religions - numbering upto thousands. Each religion has at least one sacred book, some more than one.
Sikhism has Guru Granth Sahib, Hinduism has Gita, Torah for Judaism, there are several books for Buddhists but Surta Pitaka has Buddhas teachings. Zoroastrians (from Persia -followers of Zurathushtra) also have several books, Khorda Avesta is one among them.

O yeah!! we have a bunch of them!!

Answer 10

Yes,

Mormons believe The Pearl of Great Price and Doctrine and Covenants are also scripture. We also believe that a person, when moved upon by the holy spirit to speak truth, can speak scripture. This form would not be "canonized" scripture, but it is a form of scripture.
