Jesus established a Church, not a book. Jesus promised, "I will build my Church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it" (Matt. 16:18). Among the Christian churches, only the Catholic Church has existed since the time of Jesus. Every other Christian church is an offshoot of the Catholic Church. The Eastern Orthodox churches broke away from unity with the pope in 1054. The heretical protestant churches were established during the Reformation, which began in 1517. Only the Catholic Church existed in the tenth century, in the fifth century, and in the first century, faithfully teaching the doctrines given by Christ to the apostles, omitting nothing. The list of popes can be traced back to Peter himself, the first pope. Here is a list:

Jesus’ Church is called catholic ("universal" in Greek) because it is his gift to all people. He told his apostles to go throughout the world and make disciples of "all nations" (Matt. 28:19–20). For 2,000 years the Catholic Church has carried out this mission, preaching the good news that Christ died for all men and that he wants all of us to be members of his universal family (Gal. 3:28).

According to Matthew 5:18, no language was mentioned. However, Christ most likely spoke Aramaic and Greek, Himself.

Heh
Great question.......
It was probably spoken in Hebrew, but then changed to greek, latin, then english.....
Preservation got lost in the shuffle.
Imagine the shock of the latin scribe translating the text...
'Hey, anyone know the latin word for preserved?'

It will be preserved in all languages before Jesus returns. Why do you hate the bible so much?
