Recover the Gospel ??

Please, you might be able to make an argument that some of those who followed Luther recovered something, a poor argument, but at least a slightly reasonable one, but Luther started and ended by throwing out the portions of Scripture he found inconvenient.

And yes, putting books of the Bible in an addendum prefaced with Luther's bold statement that the books in the addendum were not inspired by God is throwing them out. Throw out Revelation, Hebrews, and Peter, then call that "recovering the Gospel?

Come on, at least try and make rational statements which you cannot do when you state things that fly in the face of the very well documented facts.

Blah blah blah.

Sorry, but the Catholics didn’t set their canon til after Luther at Trent. If anything, the Papists added books to blunt the ones they found inconvienent.

Fatuous argument is fatuous.

You have yet to demonstrate you are familiar with the "very well documented facts". Here they are (once again):
