Nearly all of their specific instructions on how and what to do in Christ Church was all taught orally.

But it was established upon Scriptural substantiation in word and in power.

The scriptures chosen by the council in 382AD didn't contain any instruction on how, what, or why and so it was lost over time.

What writings became most universally established were essential due to their enduring heavenly qualities and attestation, like as men of God were, while what was lost was due to the lack of such, except among a relative few such as the Gnostics.

Thus derivative works such as the Qur'an and the Book of Mormon much depend upon such books for their degree of apparent validity. It was not The Vedas or the book of Jasher than the devil quoted from in seeking to seduce Christ.

Universally established by man, in other words, they were popular. Man chose them.

Who knows what you're missing out on:
Col 4:
16 And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.

Paul gives instructions to read the epistle of Laodicea. But, you don't have it. Obviously it was important. God wanted everyone to read it. So it wasn't God that didn't put it in the Bible, that was man's choice.

Perhaps it contained doctrine on not baptizing babies... who knows...but one thing is for certain, God wanted us to read it.
