Why was Acts 29 removed from the Bible ?

Acts 28:30-31

30 Paul stayed two full years in his own rented house. He welcomed all people who came and visited him. 31 He preached about the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ. He was very bold, and no one stopped.

Paul was never put to death, so it is probable that he went on to Tarshish to preach.


PS
How do you do that, to get the verses to come up in blue so that when you run the cursor over them you can read them ? Thanks........

You don't know that he was or wasn't put to death, for sure. So, talking either way about it as if we "know" one way or the other with certainty is spurious, historically speaking.

Proper research would have revealed to you that Acts 29 is fake….but you don’t want the truth. You only want what you personally wish to believe.
Whoa, hold on a minute.
Apple Sky has already said that she was foolish to have believed that there was an Acts 29, and asked that we disregard the thread.

My apologies. My response will be removed.

I can see this now & how foolish I've been to suggest that there was such a chapter 29.
Thank you all for opening my eyes & feel free to disregard this thread.

On second thoughts... it seems some have not read this, so perhaps you should edit the OP, to reflect this. Otherwise you might get some hammers thrown at you... if you know what I mean. :screamcat:

There is a lot of history... A lot.
If God wanted that history included in the Canon, it would have been.

It was for 1600 years along with other books. It still is in several orthodox churches along with several others. (Most notable is the Ethiopian church which recognizes 82 books as canon.

A lot of history was not, and still is not needed, as part of God's inspired word. John 21:25
However, it doesn't hurt to read up on these, outside the Bible, if one wishes.
They aren't God breathed though. 2 Timothy 3:16, 17

I would note that when Timothy was written, the other books were still considered scripture. The categorization occurred much later.

Oh yeah? And just what happened to the Book of Joseph, my peeps? Huh? [re-reads the last sentence]. Er, nevermind! [slinks away].

God sure has seemed to have done and is doing an excellent job saving souls with the Bible as it is, friend. God bless!
OH, I didn't know you had a book dedicated to you?? ;)
