  Yes, for a long time Catholics used the Latin Vulgate translated by St Jerome...but you will still find the New Testament versus in your Bible. The Catholic Bible includes several books of the Apocrypha, which was included in the first publication of the King James Bible in 1611, but was later moved to the back of the Bible as an appendix and then dropped altogether.
  
  Pastors in Protestant bible colleges still read parts of the Apocrypha...it's not considered to be divinely inspired like the canon but still considered to be 'edifying' literature.

  I do have the Apocrypha in my eBible on mobile. i didn't know the Catholic Church dropped it altogether.

  Wait .. I hope you are not misled by the statement. It said the apocrypha was dropped in the King James. Catholics and Orthodox still have it in their bible today.

  Hi I stumble upon this site while doing some research and will like to know if anyone can help. I am a Catholic. I am about to be divorced on non-biblical grounds. As the Catholic Church prohibits such a divorce, I will be compelled to leave the Catholic Church. Are there any Protestant churches in Singapore that take a liberal view of divorce, and allow a Christian/Catholic who has divorced on non-biblical grounds to remarry in the church and not be regarded as a sinner beyond redemption? I was worshipping in a Baptist church in the East and was told very rudely that I was a sinner and would not be welcomed. Thank you.

  Oh for heavens sake!!!!
