**Council of Trent, an ecumenical council called to respond to the heresy of the Reformers (1545-1563)
The canon of OT and NT received final definitions: 46 books in the OT; 27 in the NT; “Henceforth the books of the OT and the NT, protocanonical and deuterocanonical alike, in their entirety and with all their parts, comprise the canon and are held to be of equal authority.” The ancient Vulgate edition of the Bible was called the authoritative edition of the Bible.**

Definitely a BIG marker on this timeline!

Refuted the errors of the Modernists

Unfortunately, the Modernists won (see below).

The decree, On Divine Revelation, declares that . . . "The Books of Scripture must be acknowledged as teaching firmly, faithfully, and without error that truth which God wanted put into the sacred writings for the sake of our salvation."

Ie, only the Bible's "salvational" content is inerrant. On every other subject it's just another book by "men of their time" who didn't know what we do today.

The Catholic clergy are the most devout Scriptural modernists in the world.
