Why did they cut out books in the Christian bible?
No books were cut out of the bible, hundreds of books were written in the Jewish culture over the Old Testament years, many history, theology, and prophetic books were written. By 100bc Jewish religious leaders and rabbiis had finalized what we now consider the Old testament. The New Testament came about in a similar way. There were hundreds of New Testament era books about Jesus and about the newly emerging Christian church. In the early years of Christianity Churches began to accept certain books as Scripture based on their belief that these books were inspired by God. This cannon of Scripture was finalized in 316(although it had been unofficially accepted by almost all Christians for nearly 200 years before. In 316 church delegates gathered and voted on which books would be accepted as Scripture, the vote was nearly unanimous, only four out of over 300 delegates accepted what we currently refer to as the new testament. They didn't send the message that the people compiling it wanted to.
