How many times has the Bible been changed up till now?

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.


What is or was the New church of Trent?

Roman Catholic AnswerThere was no new "church of Trent". The Council of Trent was 19th of 21 general ecumenical councils of the Catholic Church, (not counting the Council of Jerusalem in the books of Acts): First Ecumenical Council: Nicaea I (325)Second Ecumenical Council: Constantinople I (381)Third Ecumenical Council: Ephesus (431)Fourth Ecumenical Council: Chalcedon (451)Fifth Ecumenical Council: Constantinople II (553)Sixth Ecumenical Council: Constantinople III (680-681)Seventh Ecumenical Council: Nicaea II (787)Eighth Ecumenical Council: Constantinople IV (869)Ninth Ecumenical Council: Lateran I (1123)Tenth Ecumenical Council: Lateran II (1139)Eleventh Ecumenical Council: Lateran III (1179)Twelfth Ecumenical Council: Lateran IV (1215)Thirteenth Ecumenical Council: Lyons I (1245)Fourteenth Ecumenical Council: Lyons II (1274)Fifteenth Ecumenical Council: Vienne (1311-1313)Sixteenth Ecumenical Council: Constance (1414-1418)Seventeenth Ecumenical Council: Basle/Ferrara/Florence (1431-1439)Eighteenth Ecumenical Council: Lateran V (1512-1517)Nineteenth Ecumenical Council: Trent (1545-1563)Twentieth Ecumenical Council: Vatican I (1869-1870)Twenty-first Ecumenical Council: Vatican II (1962-1965)All of these councils were councils called by the Holy Father and attended by as many bishops as he could get there. They were all guided by the Holy Spirit and approved by Rome so that their decisions are binding on all of Christ's Church. Each and everyone of them was called to deal with various heresies. Many of their decisions involved the first time a doctrine was actually "defined" for the simple reason that it was the first time it had seriously been called into question. There was no new church after Trent, just as there was no new church after Nicaea. Despite other opinions to the contrary, the Church of Rome was established by Christ and remained faithful to Him throughout the centuries. There is no "church of Trent".

How many Church Councils were held during 312-800 AD?

There were seven Ecumenical Councils during this time period. There were any number of Church Councils if you count all the local Councils, but I don't think anyone has ever compiled a list of local councils world-wide for the first millennium. First Ecumenical Council: Nicaea I (325) The Council of Nicaea lasted two months and twelve days. Three hundred and eighteen bishops were present. Hosius, Bishop of Cordova, assisted as legate of Pope Sylvester. The Emperor Constantine was also present. To this council we owe The Creed (Symbolum) of Nicaea, defining against Arius the true Divinity of the Son of God (homoousios), and the fixing of the date for keeping Easter (against the Quartodecimans). Second Ecumenical Council: Constantinople I (381) The First General Council of Constantinople, under Pope Damasus and the Emperor Theodosius I, was attended by 150 bishops. It was directed against the followers of Macedonius, who impugned the Divinity of the Holy Ghost. To the above-mentioned Nicene Creed it added the clauses referring to the Holy Ghost (qui simul adoratur) and all that follows to the end. Third Ecumenical Council: Ephesus (431) The Council of Ephesus, of more than 200 bishops, presided over by St. Cyril of Alexandria representing Pope Celestine I, defined the true personal unity of Christ, declared Mary the Mother of God (theotokos) against Nestorius, Bishop of Constantinople, and renewed the condemnation of Pelagius. Fourth Ecumenical Council: Chalcedon (451) The Council of Chalcedon - 150 bishops under Pope Leo the Great and the Emperor Marcian - defined the two natures (Divine and human) in Christ against Eutyches, who was excommunicated. Fifth Ecumenical Council: Constantinople II (553) The Second General Council of Constantinople, of 165 bishops under Pope Vigilius and Emperor Justinian I, condemned the errors of Origen and certain writings (The Three Chapters) of Theodoret, of Theodore, Bishop of Mopsuestia and of Ibas, Bishop of Edessa; it further confirmed the first four general councils, especially that of Chalcedon whose authority was contested by some heretics. Sixth Ecumenical Council: Constantinople III (680-681) The Third General Council of Constantinople, under Pope Agatho and the Emperor Constantine Pogonatus, was attended by the Patriarchs of Constantinople and of Antioch, 174 bishops, and the emperor. It put an end to Monothelitism by defining two wills in Christ, the Divine and the human, as two distinct principles of operation. It anathematized Sergius, Pyrrhus, Paul, Macarius, and all their followers. Seventh Ecumenical Council: Nicaea II (787) The Second Council of Nicaea was convoked by Emperor Constantine VI and his mother Irene, under Pope Adrian I, and was presided over by the legates of Pope Adrian; it regulated the veneration of holy images. Between 300 and 367 bishops assisted.
