Yes it is true there were many more 'books' in the bible centuries ago. And an equmenical council was organised to detirmine what should be removed because it didn't stick to bible principals that they  had  agreed on at that time.\nMany scriptures refer to others to form a common thread.\nGod  choose certain men to write his materials over thousands of years, and that was the guiding principal for continueity.

Most of the books of the current bible were choosen and edited by King James to suit his political aspirations.  There are many other letters written during the history of the bible, just recently we are hearing about the letters of Judas.  While all the writtings are inspired by God, man has choosen what he wants to read of them.

You are very right.  When people cut things out of the Bible, they start with Rev  22:18.  ; )  But almost everyone actually just chooses which things to follow, there are VERY few groups that obey everything in the Bible (keeping kosher, not eating shellfish, not allowing men to have long hair, treating their slaves well, etc.).  Really it's all just a buffet.

I would ask him to show me how to get it right.\n\nMoses began to compile the first five books. It is evident that Abraham was a collector of information. No problem for\nIsaac, Jacob and the 12 tribes to keep up with it. Easy for\ninfo to be passed onto Noah #10 1056-950-2006, and son Shem 1558-600-2158, 25 years to #20 Abraham dies and Ishmael is age 89, Isaac is age 75 Gen.25:9; when they bury Abraham.\n\nIshmael-2094-137-2231, and Isaac 2108-180-2288, after Adam.\nJacob-2168-147-2315[Gen.47:9,2... Joseph 2258-110-2368, end of Gen.50:26; \nJob 2293-140-2433, Moses 2433-40-2473-40-2513, Exo.7:7; 12:40,41[430]; Moses age 80 is 40 years in wilderness compiling 5 bible books to 2553, 1513 BCE. Deut.1:3; 34:7;\n\nJudges and priest to Jair 301 years from Moses, from\nJoshua is 300? Judges 11:26; 2553 + 301 = year 2854 After Adam in 89 years, Samuel is age 60= book of Ruth.\nYear 2943 and 1 Samuel to 25:1[Samuel dies]; Gad and Nathan write, 2 Samuel[Moses = 2513 + Acts 13:20; = 450 Samuel age\n60 in 2963, [+ 20 2983 dies]. 16 Samuel + 70 2Sam.5:4,5; king David dies and Psalms comes to be, 4 =] 90 = 3033 and Solomon begans temple 480th year from Moses death 1Ki.6:1; 11:42; 3069 is 997 BCE.\n\nSolomon lives another 36 years to 3069 after Adam and wrote\nProverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon. Kings end 3460 and 70 years later Ezra, Nehemiah, Ester and Mordecai, Haggai and Zechariah books come to be to 433 BCE Malachi.\n\n3069 + 391 years 1 and 2 Kings and I and 2 Chronicles the prophets Isaiah, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, until Judah kings end captive to Babylon {#3 Empire in Satan's world], Jeremiah writes Jeremiah and Lamentations, Ezekiel and Daniel write. Daniel in 3460 after Adam and 606 BCE, gives complete prophecy to Jesus cut off in Rome #6 Empire in Satan's world, World get bible {in #7 Empire in Satan's world,].\n\nDan.4:16,23,25,32[7x 360 =] 2520 years beyond Babylon or 5980 after Adam, the world will have the bible and Rev.12:7-12[Rom.16:20; and Heb.1:1-13; enemy Satan, Dan,12:1-13]; Michael cast Satan out of heaven and has a short time until Jesus takes over as the 8th Empire in Satan's world is second coming of Jesus Rev.17:1-6,10-14[Jesus comes in 8th].\nRev.20:1-6; Jesus brings back everything to the original state of newness and perfection it had before sin, some\nmen turn to angels to join him in heaven as priest of God\nand Christ Heb.12:22-24; 1 Cor.15:22-28,50-53; John 6:66; 1Thes.4:15-17; Rev.3:12; 21:1-5;\n\nSo the New Testament had to began after {3460 + 606 after Christ= 4066]. We are 2006 after less KJV 1611 and in 303\nyears was an excepted translation, now any will do, but KJV is 395 years in our world.\nI hope I did not miss something, hard to do so much.

Probably Jude... although I love reading it aloud, and it is quite powerful.  Actually I'd just like to trim the bit where Satan is arguing over Moses' body and the Enoch reference.\n BTW the Book of Enoch is not mention in the Old Testament, although he is mentioned (Genesis) and 'walked with God' implying he 'ascended' bodily into Heaven.  The book of Enoch is a much later writing, and was clearly not written by Enoch himself, which is part of the reason its left out of the gospels.  (It constitutes as part of the Psuedepigrepha)  Much of Enoch's fame stems from traditions, that include his transformation into the Metatron (the voice fo God).\n  I'd also be inclined to suggest a different version if you are having trouble with Paul.  Although bits can be very complicated even at the best of times.  The other thing to try: read them aloud, many of the letters were intended to be read aloud to congregations.

Probably Nostradamus.  If you type in his name in a search engine, you will get oodles of information.  There are also many, many books written about his prophecies.

Sure has been looking that way for a while--they have been slowly moving us in that direction as they unwittingly serve Satan's purposes.  It was all prophesied centuries ago.  Read Ezekiel, Isiah, and Revelation.  Good news is the bad guys lose in the end.  I read the back of the Book and we win.
