YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn Christianity’s first bible, God is evil, Jesus is not the messiah, and there are only 12 books. Marcion of Sinope, one of the most notorious heretics, created the first biblical canon in the 140s CE, hundreds of years before the New Testament was canonized. This is the story of the heretic who invented the bible.
Themes here include orthodoxy vs heresy, the canonization of the new testament, Jesus’ parables, the teachings of the apostle Paul, gnosticism, and the work of heresiologists like Tertullian and Irenaeus.
