So Christian's got it wrong for 1,500 years until Martin Luther came around, broke his vows, married a Nun & removed books (that 1st Century Christ-Killing Jews also wanted gone) and Luther simply added words to justify his new Theology?
The original 66 books were the only books until the early Catholic Church started to meet and need justification for their doctrines. If you actually look at the early church in Acts they only reference the original writings from Luke, John, Matthew, Mark, James, and Paul.
Apocrypha, the collection of Jewish writings composed during the time between the Old and New Testaments (400 BC to the first century AD). These books were accepted by the early Christian Church (composed of the Jewish Apostles) & these books were only protested after early Christians began to use it & protested by (Christ killing) Jews in 90 AD, sixty-six years after the same Jews killed Christ.
The Jewish scholars at Jabneh (c. A.D. 90) did not accept the Apocrypha as part of the divinely inspired Jewish canon. Since the New Testament explicitly states that Israel was entrusted with the oracles of God and was the recipient of the covenants and the Law (Rom. 3:2), the Jews should be considered the custodians of the limits of their own canon...
Catholics & Orthodox follow what the early Church believed. Protestants side with the people who killed Christ. Basically, Protestants are Jews who eat pork.
