How the Canon (New Testament) was formed

[velvetpage]

An interesting read about the choice of writings to be included in the New Testament. I find it most intriguing that the father of the Reformation questioned the book of Revelation, among others. Anyway, of interest to those of you who are into Church history.

I didn't read the link but just barely skimmed it because I know my Church History *says in a I am superior than you sort of voice* (I am being silly)

I think Luther wanted to kick out the book of James too since it was too 'works' focused.
