Christianity has no accepted ‘canon.’

Paul declared the ancient Hebrew scriptures to be Yehova’s canon of what the apostles called scripture.

Various sects and self appointed tyrants of the catholic church have arbitrarily added and subtracted supposed letters to the NT at will, but lack any authority to do so, as Yeshua declared plainly that there is no man in charge of his assembly.

“Christianity has no accepted ‘canon.’”

Sure it does. Early Church leaders and bishops, put much thought into the inspired Word of God. Christians agreed on this, except for several branches in heresy. Christianity, agreed on the canon, for the most part. Differences were worked out in Councils, with not much resistance and vast agreement. Then, after 1,500 years or so, there was suddenly disagreement to suit the needs of those inventing their own religions.
