What? Following one error with another is simply another argument against being an RC. Show me (your list) that the apocryphal books were the most cited - not possible allusions or similarities and or the usual RC recourse to extrapolation - by Christ in those Gospels.
, And where merely enlisting a statement from somewhere (versus "thus saith the Lord," "the Scriptures," "the word of God," "it is written," "the law saith," Moses or the prophets...) renders the work as wholly inspired of God.
Or that Luther dissented from an infallible indisputable canon that was settled for centuries.
Rome may presume to declare Truth by fiat, but you are on a forum not controlled by the inquisitors or Catholic Answers mods.
Indeed, I have just checked a number of lists of Jesus’ Scriptural quotes and none come from books any Protestant would consider noncanonical, at least not that I could find. They are all from standard OT canon books, Psalms, Isaiah, Deuteronomy, etc. So I don’t even understand the statement. There do not appear to be any disputed books involved.
