The Bible Is a Catholic Book

De: Jimmy Akin

Narrado por: Jimmy Akin

In The Bible Is a Catholic Book, Jimmy Akin shows how the Bible cannot exist apart from the church. In its origins and its formulation, in the truths it contains, in its careful preservation over the centuries, and in the prayerful study and elucidation of its mysteries, Scripture is inseparable from Catholicism. This is fitting, since both come from God for our salvation.

If you're a Catholic who sometimes gets intimidated by the Bible, The Bible Is a Catholic Book will help you better understand and take pride in this gift that God gave the world through the church. We are the original Bible Christians!

And even non-Catholics will appreciate the clear and charitable way that Jimmy explains how the early church gave us the Bible and how the church to this day reveres and obeys it.

Isn't just for Catholics who want to know more.

This book is a great read for any Catholic who wants to understand more about his or her faith and where the Bible fits in. Protestants and non-believers owe it to themselves to get an accurate history of how the Bible was established, particularly the New Testament and the Gospels, and how Sacred Tradition fits in.

Excellent Narration

Had no problem finishing this book in a matter of days, Jimmy Akin's narration is captivating. So much good information in this book, you won't be able to stop listening!

Terrific explanation for the History of the Bible

Jimmy does a splendid job explaining the origins of the Bible. From how the old testament came about to how the New Testament was built. Even Protestant Christians could learn much from this book, since it is a matter of massive importance understanding the Word of God and where it came from. It is certainly a must-listen for any Catholic as well, as Jimmy Akin does a splendid job of laying out everything clearly and precisely.

Loved it

Very informative, well thought out and Jimmy did a great job narrating. I would highly recommend.

Very thorough review.

As a lifelong Protestant studying Catholicism seriously for the first time, I’ve grown to appreciate Jimmy Akins’ work. As never having had a positive experience with catholic peers (none understood the rich history), except my now wife of 41 years, I never felt good reason to study carefully. I had persuaded her away to interdenominational and Lutheran church families, Now, she has returned home to the Catholic Church and I have determined to give Catholicism very serious research. Scott Hahn, Trent Horn, Fr, Robert Barron, Ralph Martin, Peter Madrid, Jimmy Akin, and even men like Matt Frad all are contributing to my deep journey. As a life long study of church history from the Protestant perspective, I realize how much history I’ve missed. Thanks to this book and many others like it I’m growing. I love Jesus with all my heart and want to be found faithful in Him.

I do feel some parts of this book and some other Catholic authors go a little too hard or dismissively on some of the Protestant criticisms, but overall this book is fair and a balanced. I highly recommend it.

Awesome read

Great job breaking it down.
A total learning experience.
I reccomend this title to everyone.

An excellent perspective worth listening to over and over.

An excellent perspective worth reading and listening to over and over.
Thank you Jimmy Akin, and: May God bless you and keep you…

Just what I was looking for!

I am Catholic. So many attacks on the church. One of the most ridiculous is where the Bible came from. The history & explanations given in this book pull it all together!

Beyond informative

This book contains more information than I expected. Ie dates, ancient fathers, and their understandings

Must Read

An excellent book for anyone interested in learning about the history of Biblical development. Mr Akin narrates the book himself making it that much more enjoyable to listen to. This is definitely a resource I will frequently be handing out to others.
