Is the Protestant Canon Valid? With Dan Lewis #322

from Things You Don't Hear in Church Hosted by Things You Dont Hear In Church

Is the Protestant Canon valid? Why do Protestants have 66 books in the Bible while Catholics and Orthodox Christians include additional books in the Old Testament? In this video, we explore the fascinating history of the biblical canon, the development of the Old Testament, and the reasons behind the differences between Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox Bibles. We'll examine the Deuterocanonical books (also called the Apocrypha), the role of the Septuagint, the Hebrew Scriptures, and how the early Church understood the canon of Scripture. Whether you're a Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox Christian, skeptic, new believer, or someone curious about Jesus and Christianity, this discussion will help you better understand one of the most important questions in Christian history. If you've ever wondered which Bible is correct, why Christians disagree about the Old Testament, or how the canon was formed, this video provides historical context, biblical evidence, and thoughtful analysis. Join us as we dive into church history, Christian apologetics, biblical studies, and the reliability of Scripture. Subscribe for more content on Christianity, theology, church history, apologetics, biblical interpretation, the early Church, and defending the Christian faith.
