Biblical Canon was originally setup by the Catholic Church Later there were changes to the books and their order by the Christian Councils: the Council of Rome of 155 the Council of Rome of 193 the Council of Ephesus of 193 the Council of Carthage of 251 the Council of Iconium of 258[13] the Council of Antioch of 264 the Council of Arabia of 246-247 the Council of Elvira of 306 the Council of Carthage of 311 the Synod of Neo-Caesarea of c. 314 the Council of Ancyra of 314 the Council of Arles of 314 First Council of Nicaea (325) First Council of Constantinople (381) First Council of Ephesus (431) Council of Chalcedon (451) Second Council of Constantinople (553) Third Council of Constantinople (680-681) Second Council of Nicaea (787)
Council of Five Hundred ended in 1799.
Repeatedly.First Council of Nicaea (325)First Council of Constantinople (381)Council of Ephesus (431)Second Council of Ephesus (449)Council of Chalcedon (451) repudiatedSecond Council of Constantinople (553)Third Council of Constantinople (680-681)Quinisext Council, also called Council in Trullo [2] (692)Second Council of Nicaea (787)First Council of the Lateran (1123)Fourth Council of the Lateran (1215)Second Council of Lyon (1274)First Council of the Vatican (1870; officially, 1870-1960)At each of these ecumenical councils (not all of the councils, incidentally), there were definitive changes in the content and interpretation of scripture, including the addition of some books/passages and the removal of others and whether or not Jesus was THE son of God or just A son of God....Then of course there are parts that were dramatically altered WITHOUT a council for personal gain. One great example of this was Henry VIII, who, in a break from the Catholic Church, "tweaked" the contents of the Bible to allow himself to divorce his current wife.And then there were the couple hundred years of doctrinal changes occurring as a war between the pope in Spain and the Pope in Italy vied for control of Catholicsm (Italy won) in 1534-1549.So.. yeah, the Bible has definitely been changed.
Ask the london council :)
