Not really, it took writings from much earlier and put them into one place. I mean the Catholic church follows things that are OT and don't even apply to Christians at all. Things that go directly against what Christ taught, you can't justify that by saying well the Pope said it was OK.
They took what they wanted and used it to gain power and supported things like the Inquisition, Hitler etc. The church, any church is nothing more than fallible men and only God's law is forever. The profits, Apostles etc have been gone for a long time. And the hierarchy of the Catholic church has made HUGE mistakes in history since then. Sided with pure evil, converted via the sword and even hid child molesters in more recent times. Any church is supposed to be a shinning light of Gods love and mercy, not hiding secrets and backing dictators etc.
Many Catholics are blessed and will be in heaven, this does not however absolve the Catholic church of it's pagan roots and blasphemous behavior over time. They have been the single most disastrous representation of Christs love on this planet, and did evil in his name. Fortunately that can be forgiven, but the damage to the Catholic churches reputation will be much harder to recover, if ever.
Darn it, I am way off topic. Forgive me. I am done.
Have a good one man. I will even let you have the last word, something I am loath to do, lol.
