Do you understand that it's impossible to consult any Bible for the answer? The answer depends on an extra-biblical authority. It's simple logic.

Col_2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

1Co_1:20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

1Co_2:5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

1Co_2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

Eph_1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

It's clear to me that you don't spend much time, if any, in the scriptures... Your religion teaches you contrary to the scriptures that ONLY the clerics are indwelt with the Holy Ghost...Obviously most of you believe that...

A person will get nothing out of the scriptures who is not indwelt with the Spirit...He/she has nothing to guide him/her other than man's logic and wisdom...

Those who spend time in the scriptures are of a different mind than you...

Which canon of Scripture does the Bible tell us is the correct canon of Scripture? Luther's canon, the Catholic canon, or the Orthodox canon?

This isn't a complicated question, even though Protestants want to make it so.

A book does not determine its own table of contents. An editor does.
