right. The Roman Church was not even around when 2/3 of the Bible was written. The canon of the NT was circulating long before the Roman Church as the letters of Paul were circulating contemporaneously. The Roman church did. it finally settle its canon until after the council of trent but the Roman church gave us the Bible. right……. Good thing you guys existed or God would have been powerless to get His Word out.
Momma, you are spreading false stories you’ve heard. That’s fake news.
Christians used the Septuagint Old Testament in Greek with its 45 books. The Jewish rabbis who survived the destruction of Jerusalem, at Yavneh in c.90 AD adopted a narrower Hebrew canon of 39 books.
The NT is the list of books which the bishops authorized for reading at the Eucharist.
The earliest list we have is that of the Muratorian canon c.180 AD.
The canonical list we have now was defined at the Councils of Rome (380) and Carthage (397), By the year 358 the current canon of Scripture was agreed upon before council. That’s not to say, though, that there was no Bible before that. Only three books were ever seriously in question by the Church: the Didaché, the Epistles of Clement, and The Shepherd of Hermas.
Those councils were just reproducing what appears to have been almost a fait accomplish by the end of the second century.
