quote:Men were merely the instruments of God that God used to reveal His will to mankind. God wrote the Bible through men as they were carried along by the spirit of God. That means the Bible is the word of God, not the word of man.
Men imagined the Bible. They even edited books out of it.
As far as editing books out, I believe you are referring to the recognition of those books that are and are not inspired and considered the word of God. Considering there were false writings being attributed to apostles or other well-known Christians that were being distributed as the word of God but that contained obvious errors and contradictions to the established scriptures, it was necessary to identify those false writings and exclude them from the canon of scripture to ensure Christians weren't being led astray by false teachings masquerading as the word of God.
Fortunately, we have most if not all of those writings with us today so that we can compare them against recognized scripture. When you do that, it's pretty clear why they either aren't included in many Bibles or aren't considered authoritative.
