March 5, 2010 – Catechism 120-130

The Canon of the Bible.  The list of books that make up what we know as the Bible.  The list as Catholics know it today was not compiled until the 300’s.  It stayed that way until Luther removed certain books from the list. 

I love how they specifically tell us that the Old Testament is an important part.  I think sometimes people only focus on the New Testament.  You can not read and understand the New without the Old.  They are connected and one Scripture.
