Many Christians are not aware that the bible is the old testament and the new testament is the gospel.The new testament is not part of the bible but the Roman Catholic church founding fathers combined the gospel and the bible to suit their understanding and that error was traditional passed from generation to generation until today.

No, that is incorrect in many ways. The Old Testament is composed of Jewish scripture, the bible is both new and old testaments and the New Testament is composed of the Gospels and many other books.
Neither is it correct to say the Roman Catholic Church created the Bible since it was collated a long time before the existence of the Roman Catholic Church which originates in the 11th century when the then Bishop of Rome split from the Orthodox Church and declared himself pope.

The Holy Bible is made up of the old and new testament.The old testament being the same as jewish scripture which is known as the torah. It is a collections of books written no later than the mid 2nd century the Gospels being written by Matthew,Mark,Luke and John and collated into the new testament before the catholic church became what it is today.
