Why don't followers of the Bible question why so many books are hidden?
Isn't every book important? Why should some be kept out? They say these stories are said to be "false writings", but how can anyone prove that? This has been on my mind since I woke up; so if anyone has some insight for me, share.

But who's to say what is the Word of God? What if those other books said otherwise or had evidence that could disprove the entire concept?

Some are not scripture. The one I belive should be included that isn't is the book of Enoch.

My belief is,If God wanted them included in His Holy Scriptures,then we would have them.
As for the Apocrypha,it came out of Egypt and was not written by creditable authors.The "Lost gospels"(Judas,Mary Magdalene etc.) have been proved to be much later writings and are not historically accurate.

What Emperor Constitine decreed would constitute the Bible was only about three percent of the books available. The rest were discarded not hidden.

A lot of Christians only know what they are taught in the church. Unfortunately many Christians dont even know about those other books because they church is based around the bible as is

By your logic the Book of Mormon and the Qu'ran should be Scripture.
It must be the inspired Word of God to be validated as Scripture.
