What Came First, The Bible or Church?
.
.
Before we start, we will define first the meaning of this terms "Bible" and "Church". The "Bible" we are referring to is the "Christian Bible" which is complete with Old Testament and New Testament. So it is clear that this is a Christian Bible, not the Jewish Bible since they only have the Old Testament. The Christian Bible have Old and New Testaments. The term "Church" that we referred to is the group, congregation or assembly that Christ founded on 33AD. This is not the INC which was only founded by Manalo on 1914. This Church is responsible for spreading Christianity to the whole world.
.
To make this clearer, we will compare this to the different religions in the world. Because a legitimate religion had existed prior to the making of their holy scripture. It will not happen that the Holy Scripture of one religion had existed before that said religion itself.
.
.
For example, the Holy Scripture of Jews called Tanakh was only compiled after the establisent of the religion Judaism. Moses had already a religion even before he wrote the Torah or the first 5 books.
.
The Holy Scripture of Muslims called Quran was only compiled after Muhammad founded Islam. The Holy Scripture of Buddhists called "Tripitaka" was compiled several centuries after Siddharta Gautama founded Buddhism. The Holy Scripture of Mormons called "Book of Mormons" was only compiled later after Joseph Founded his religion "The Church of Christ of the Latter day saints". The Holy Scripture of Confucianism called "Lun-yu" was compiled a long time after Confucius died. The Holy Scripture of Hinduism called "The Vedas" was only compiled centuries after Hinduism was formed. The Holy Scripture of Zoroastrianism called "Vesta" was compiled after the religion Zoroastrianism was founded. The Holy Scripture of Sikhism called Adi Grant was compiled very late after Sikhism was founded. Almost all religions which have Holy Scriptures had existed first prior to their Holy Scriptures.
.
That's the proof that the group or religion must exist first before the holy scripture. Likewise, the Holy Scripture of Christians called Holy Bible must exist after the Church who compiled it. The religion who compiled the Bible is the legitimate religion founded by Christ. There is no other religion who compiled the Bible in the 4th century but only the Catholic Church.
.
.
We will make it clear first that the Christian Bible was not dropped from heaven already numbered with chapters and verses, and bookbound already. There was a group of people who was responsible for the compilation of the Bible. That group of people who compiled the Bible is the Church. And that Church is no other than the Catholic Church. It was Catholics who collected those books for selection of inspired from the uninspired writings. It was Catholics who decided on what books to be made part of the New Testament. It was Catholics who made the first Christian Bible called "Latin Vulgate". It was Catholics who put chapters and verses in the Bible. It was a Catholic who invented the first printing press that produced printed Bibles, because prior to that, bibles were hand-written by Catholic monks.
.
For short, the apostles had not used Bible to preach, but through oral Tradition or verbal teachings. The teachings of Christ was conveyed to the apostles by words. Then the apostles on their part had conveyed the teachings by words. It was not written teachings and that's what we call Sacred Tradition. Apostle Paul had confirmed it on his letter in 2 Thess 2:15, that says
.
"Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle" (2 Thess 2:15)
.
.
In addition, Apostle Paul had said in 1 Cor. 11:2.
.
"I praise you for remembering everything I told you and for holding to the Traditions that I passed on to you." (1 Cor 11.2)
.
So, it's clear that the early Christians actually had Traditions. These traditions are the teachings which were not written, so it was transmitted to the people by words.
.
So what came first, the Bible or the Church? It is very clear that the Church existed first before the Bible, which is a product of the Church. Christ and the Apostles had preached without any Christian Bible. Because the Bible that we are using had been compiled only ok the 4th century, through the efforts of the bishops of the Church. That Church is no other than the Catholic Church. The first book of the New Testament is 1 Thesalonians which was written in 51 AD. It means that the Church had existed already for 18 years before the the first book of the New Testament was written by Paul to the Thessalonians.
