one more question

does the new testament make use of jewish writings NOT found in the jewish tanakh?
Which Christian canon are you talking about?
There's only one.
Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox versions of the Bible are demonstrably different.
Very true. Two of those groups of users are demonstrably not Christian.
I don't know that Net2004 agrees with you about that, and it's Net2004's understanding that's relevant to answering Net2004's question; what Net2004 means by 'the Christian canon' is not necessarily the same as what you mean by 'the Christian canon'.

Is. Isn't. Is too.


sotto voce: identify your idea of the canon, or stop cluttering the thread with non-responses.

Very false. All three of those groups of users are demonstrably Christian.
All three groups repeat the same pack of lies, and all three groups have a long history of the same despicable behaviors.

It's remarkable how certainty that there is no Christ correlates with certainty of who is a Christian.

It is even more remarkable that anyone familiar with the Scriptures and with the New Testement accounts would ever want to associate themselves with the name (link) 'Christian' :constern01:
