  • “Canon” Or “Canonicity” in Christianity Refers to a Collection of Many Books Acknowledged Or Recognized by the Early Church As Inspired by God
    Canonicity Introduction The term “canon” or “canonicity” in Christianity refers to a collection of many books acknowledged or recognized by the early church as inspired by God. Both Jews and Christians possess canons of Scripture. We must remember that the first Christians did not possess a New Testament canon but rather they relied on the gospel that was being proclaimed to them by the apostles and others. They also relied on the books of the Old Testament canon. The Jewish canon consists of thirty-nine books while on the other hand the Christian canon consists of sixty-six for Protestants and seventy-three for Catholics. The Protestant canon has thirty- nine Old Testament books like the Jews and twenty-seven works compose the New Testament. The subject of canonicity is an extremely important subject for the Christian to grasp since it answers the question as to why certain books found their way into the Bible and why others did not. It answers the question as to whether or not the church determined what was in the Bible and what would not be included. Did the church determine which books got into the Bible or did the church merely recognize that certain Christian literary works were inspired and others were not? This article seeks to answer this important question. The subject of canonicity also answers the question as to whether or not certain criteria was employed by the church to determine which books were inspired by God and which were not. If there was certain criteria employed, then what tests did the church use to identify certain works as inspired and those which were not.

After Henry VIII and his two daughters (Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth I) died, James VI of Scotland (son of Mary Queen of Scots) also became James I of Great Britain. The King was to play a pivotal role in the Bible's journey to the 21st century. Not long after James became king, scholars discussed the need for a new English translation of the Bible. Reformers, fleeing to Switzerland during the reign of Queen Mary, had published a Bible in English (the Geneva Bible). The Geneva Bible (the version used by Shakespeare and America's "pilgrim fathers") existed in many different editions. King James referred to it as "the worst." By 1604, James I convened the Hampton Court Conference. The King and the conference attendees agreed to commission a new translation. Using Hebrew and Greek manuscripts, collectively known as the Textus Receptus, scholars called this new translation the King James Version (KJV) in honor of the king who had authorized it.

  • The Sola Scriptura Principle in the Current Debate1
    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 24/1 (2013):107-126. Article copyright © 2013 by Aleksandar S. Santrac. The Sola Scriptura Principle in the Current Debate1 Aleksandar S. Santrac, D.Phil., Ph.D. Professor of Religion, Philosophy & Ethics University of the Southern Caribbean, Trinidad, WI Extraordinary Associate Professor of Dogmatics North-West University, RSA Introduction In this article, I would like to present the contemporary Evangelical position on the sola scriptura principle, in the context of ecumenical dialogue with the Roman Catholic Church and the brief conversation with a current Adventist position. The preliminary working definition of the sola scriptura principle, from the conventional Protestant/Evangelical standpoint, may include: i. the primary and absolute authority of the Scripture, as originally given, as the final court of appeal for all doctrine and practice; ii. the sufficiency of the Scripture as the final written authority of God; iii. the clearness (perspicuity) of the essential biblical message; iv. the primacy of the Scriptures over all tradition rather than a total rejection of tradition and, v. the principle that Scripture interprets Scripture without external authority.2 1 This article is partially a brief excerpt from my Sola Scriptura: Benedict XVI’s Theology of the Word of God, PhD dissertation, North-West University, RSA, 2012. 2 Norman L.

  • Why We Reject the Apocrypha,” the Evangelical Quarterly 1.4 (October 1929): 361-366
    Edward C. Unmack, “Why We Reject The Apocrypha,” The Evangelical Quarterly 1.4 (October 1929): 361-366. Why We Reject The Apocrypha Edward C. Unmack [p.361] A one-volume commentary has recently been issued entitled A New Commentary on Holy Scripture, Including the Apocrypha. This, in effect, puts the Apocrypha on the same level with the books of the Old and New Testaments of the ordinary Protestant Bible. This tendency to level the Bible and the Apocrypha has again and again manifested itself in the history of the Christian religion. Two forces are at work which aim at so levelling them. On the one hand Sacerdotalism, finding some of its favourite doctrines supported in the Apocryphal books, has sought from time to time to raise them to the same authority as Holy Scripture, as was deliberately attempted to be done by a decree of the Council of Trent in the year 1546. On the other hand, Modernism brings down the religious records of the Old and New Testaments to the level of ordinary human writings, and so to the level of the Apocrypha. In accordance with these tendencies it is not surprising that the New Commentary on the Bible described as, Including the Apocrypha, contains both Sacerdotal and Modernist elements. However, Churches of all ages, and Protestantism in particular, have rejected the Books of the Apocrypha as not inspired, and as on a different level altogether from those of the Old and New Testaments. The evidence for this can conveniently be grouped under two headings: (1) The history of the Books; and (2) their contents.

  • Areas of Doctrinal Differences
    PART 2 AREAS OF DOCTRINAL DIFFERENCES In the first part of this volume we have stressed what evangelicals have in common with Roman Catholics. In short, this includes the great fundamentals of the Christian faith, including a belief in the Trinity, the virgin birth, the deity of Christ, the creation and subsequent fall of humanity, Christ’s unique atonement for our sins, the physical resurrection of Christ, the necessity of God’s grace for salvation, the existence of heaven and hell, the second coming of Christ, and the verbal inspiration and infallibility of Scripture. In spite of all these similarities in belief, however, there are some significant differences between Catholics and evangelicals on some important doctrines. Catholics affirm and evangelicals reject the immaculate conception of Mary, her bodily assumption, her role as corredemptrix, the veneration of Mary and other saints, prayers to Mary and the saints, the infallibility of the pope, the existence of purgatory, the inspiration and canonicity of the Apocrypha, the doctrine of transubstantiation, the worship of the transformed Host, the special sacerdotal powers of the Roman Catholic priesthood, and the necessity of works to obtain eternal life. Since all of these have been proclaimed as infallible dogma by the Roman Catholic Church, and since many are contrary to central teachings of evangelicalism, there appears to be no hope of ecumenical or ecclesiastical unity. Here we must recognize our differences and agree to disagree agreeably, knowing that there are many doctrines we hold in common (see Part One) and many things we can do together morally, socially, and educationally (see Part Three).

The order and number of books in the LXX differs from the original Hebrew. The Protestant Bible follows the ordering of the LXX’s books and the content of the Hebrew Bible (which excludes the apocrypha).

  • SOLA SCRIPTURA, INERRANTIST FUNDAMENTALISM, and the WESLEYAN QUADRILATERAL: IS "NOCREED but the Biblena WORKABLE SOLUTION?
    Andrews University Seminary Studies, Autumn 1997, Vol. 35, No. 2,211-226 Copyright O 1997 by Andrews University Press. SOLA SCRIPTURA, INERRANTIST FUNDAMENTALISM, AND THE WESLEYAN QUADRILATERAL: IS "NOCREED BUT THE BIBLEnA WORKABLE SOLUTION? WOODROWW. WHIDDEN Andrews University Berrien Springs, MI 49104 Introduction American Bible-believing Protestants have given firm support to the finality of biblical authority in doctrinal formation. This scripturally oriented heritage certainly has its source in the issues which erupted out of the sixteenth-century Reformation's resort to and emphasis upon the sola Scriptwa principle. The issue which this article addresses is whether conservative Protestants can, in all honesty, continue to give assent to this venerable principle.1 While other traditions will be mentioned, the focus of this essay will be on the way Wesleyans have sought to come to terms with the practical problems raised by sola Scriptura. This will be addressed through a clarification of the way their use of the so-called Quadrilateral can be instructive for other traditions which take scriptural authority seriously. Before we address some historic trends which have rendered soh Scriptura problematic and seek to clarify the implications of the Quadrilateral methodology, a brief sketch of the way sola Scriptura has evolved in the American Protestant Bible-believing tradition is in order. A North American Historical Sketch Much of the practical interaction with Scripture is still under the shadow of the yeasty individualism of the early nineteenth century. In that time sola Smptura evolved into such radical slogans as "No creed but 'Probably the best review of the historical and hermeneutical vagaries which surrounded rhk Reformation appropriation of sola Scriptura is given by ~linerMcGrath, Reformation Thought (New York: Basil Blackwell, 1988), 95-116; and idem, The Intellecttral Origins of the European Reformation (New York: Basil Blackwell, 1987), 140-174.

  • Religious Transactions in Colonial South India: Language, Translation
    48 Book Reviews Missionary translations, which were word for word renderings in Tamil from other language texts, differed significantly from the long history of “translations,” that is, rewritings in Tamil Reviews from other Indian languages. (21) The introduction also gives a brief overview of the history of Bible translation into Tamil. Although the first Roman Catholic Religious Transactions in Colonial South India: Language, Tamil Bible was considerably later (NT 1857, OT 1904) than Translation and the Making of Protestant Identity, by the Protestant (NT 1714, OT 1727), there were Tamil Roman Hephzibah Israel (Palgrave Studies in Cultural and Intellectual Catholic writings well before the arrival of Protestants.
