***since there was no controversy. only after some reformers questioned some books in the OT,****
Eusebius had some interesting thoughts on those questionable OT books. It is found in his ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY.
He ranks some of them right along with THE SHEPHERD OF HERMAS which he considered OK for moralistic reading by new believers, but not sacred scripture.
Shucks! By his Eusebius’ standards they STILL beat the BOMormon by a country mile!
usually the devil is more devious when bringing forth a false gospel, mormonism is such a joke that we must conclude the devil was having a bad day when he was inspiring Joseph Smith.
you have to cut him a break though, he was certainly busy in the 19th century with false gospels ( mormons, christian science, seventh day adventist, jehovah witnesses, christadelphians, etc )
