Christianity must be rooted in scripture.

Christianity is founded by and has its foundation in Christ. The Church existed for more than 20 years before Paul began writing his Epistles and existed for more than 350 years before the canon of NT Scripture (including the versions of each book) was chosen.

The Berean searched the Septuagint. Which includes the dreaded Deuterocanonicals that are shunned by Protestants. They had no NT. Are you a Judaizer who only studies the OT now?

By the way, the Septuagint, the Greek OT used by Christ and most of the world, predates the hypothetical Council of Jamnia by centuries.
