Between the Second Council of Constantinople and the Council of Nicaea more than 100 books were burned or rejected and considered heresy that didn't fit the political agenda

This is true too as only 66 of the hundreds of books made it into the 'official' bible - lets see what God says about it. hf

I am glad you came. I have always been here to help you. I am here now. You don’t have to
find the answers on your own. You never had to.
Yet it seems so.. .presumptuous. . .to simply sit down and dialogue with You this way—much
less to imagine that You—God—are responding—I mean, this is crazy.
I see. The authors of the Bible were all sane, but you are crazy.
The Bible writers were witnesses to the life of Christ, and faithfully recorded what they heard
and saw.
Correction. Most of the New Testament writers never met or saw Jesus in their lives. They
lived many years after Jesus left the Earth. They wouldn’t have known Jesus of Nazareth if
they walked into him on the street.
But...
The Bible writers were great believers and great historians. They took the stories which hadbeen passed down to them and to their friends by others— elders—from elder to elder, until
finally a written record was made.
And not everything of the Bible authors was included in the final document.
Already “churches” had sprung up around the teachings of Jesus—and, as happens
whenever and wherever people gather in groups around a powerful idea, there were certain
individuals within these churches, or enclaves, who determined what parts of the Jesus Story
were going to be told—and how. This process of selecting and editing continued throughout
the gathering, writing, and publishing of the gospels, and the Bible.
Even several centuries after the original scriptures were committed to writing, a High Council
of the Church determined yet one more time which doctrines and truths were to be included
in the then-official Bible—and which would be “unhealthy” or “premature” to reveal to the
masses.
And there have been other holy scriptures as well—each placed in writing in moments of
inspiration by otherwise ordinary men, none of whom were any more crazy than you.
Are you suggesting—you’re not suggesting, are you—that these writings might one day
become “holy scriptures”?
My child, everything in life is holy. By that measure, yes, these are holy writings. But I will not
quibble with you over words, because I know what you mean.
No, I do not suggest that this manuscript will one day become holy scripture. At least, not for
several hundred years, or until the language becomes outmoded.
You see, the problem is that the language here is too colloquial, too conversational, too
contemporary. People assume that if God were to talk directly with you, God would not sound
like the fella next door. There should be some unifying, if not to say deifying, structure to the
language. Some dignity. Some sense of Godliness.
As I said earlier, that’s part of the problem. People have a sense of God as “showing up” in
only one form. Anything which violates that form is seen as blasphemy.hf
