>> “Take a look at the canon ordered by the Catholic Church...” <<

.
Take a look at the real scriptures, and see that no one was ever authorized to declare a “canon.”

You invite the curses by violating the prohibition against adding or subtracting. That prohibitiopn is at the end of Torah and at the end of the NT.

The individual believer is fully capable of discerning whether a particular writing is in union with the body of scripture.

That prohibitiopn(sic) is at the end of Torah and at the end of the NT.

If we go by the supposed prohibition at the end of the Torah, we would only have the first five books of the Tanakh. Is this really what you want to limit the Bible to?
