It is not a problem except one

You have 3 but wrong on all counts.

Accepts the primacy of Orthodox Judaism to establish the Canon of scripture (and yes, there are references for this in scripture, ie., Moses' seat, to whom belong the scriptures) after Jesus' Advent

Illogical. You argument is like that of Catholics who argue that concurrence with their church on the NT canon means acceptance of her authority, which is absurd. The importance relevance of the Palestinian canon is that it both testifies against the LXX containing the Deuteros or of that establishing a canon, and that tripartite canon of those who sat in the seat of Moses being the one Christ referred to as "all the Scriptures." (LK. 24:27.44)

Rejects that Jesus gave the power to bind and loose that belonged to Moses' seat to the Apostle Peter (and the other Apostles)

It does not, and in face SS (such as the Westminster Confession) affirms the authority of councils to Scripturally settle disputes. However what it rejects is the novel and unScriptural premise of ensured perpetual magisterial infallibility as per Rome, so that its judgments must be correct.

That was neither promised, exampled, or presumed in giving authority to those mortals who were given authority in the OT and in the NT. Nor to civil authorities who can also render like binding judgments, but which does not mean they cannot be wrong and so dissent is warranted. That of Acts 15 was established upon Scriptural substantiation in word and in power.

Rejects Orthodox Christianity in favor of reformed, restorationist, or reconstructionist authorities.

And the NT church began upon Scriptural dissent from those who actually did sit in the seat of Moses over Israel, as the magisterial stewards of Scripture, and it the faith of that church and the books they referred to as Scripture, "It is written," Moses said," etc. that we are to follow. Rome is who much rejects that in favor of reformed, restorationist, or reconstructionist authorities.

  1. "One" refers to a personal pronoun. There is no Palestinian canon. The Samaritan woman was corrected by the Messiah. They know not what they worship for salvation is of the Jews.
  2. Westminster ? There is no Westminster in the scriptures. Henry VIII in 1539-40 founded something there that lasted a short time in a bid to supplant the Catholic diocese that preceded it by centuries.
  3. Rome is a Church in the scriptures, known throughout the world for its faith.
  4. The Church that the Messiah built was not built on scriptural dissent, nor on the Bible for that matter. It was built on the Apostle Peter, the other Apostles and Prophets, with the Messiah Himself as the chief cornerstone.
