Good point!

But if you read it. For 2 hundred years The Lutherans kept Revelation and other books out. Just making historical point. I left the Catholic church because of the lies that Luther started every where you went in the Independent Churches painted lies and half truths of the Catholic Church.

Every Church has Bad guys thru history. The ones I heard where way overboard. I got to Mass now and Its beautiful and spiritual. The lie that Luther called the Pope the Antichrist was a lie. We declare the Nicene creed and apostles creed(John requirement which defines the proper spirit) at Sunday mass and private devotions. Never did any Indie church say the Nicene Creed. A positive confession. I mean never. Which shows the many reasons the mass is totally biblical.

Keep in mind that the Roman Catholic Church of today is very different than the early 16th century Western Church. If the church then were like it is now, there probably wouldn’t have been a Reformation.

In regards to Revelation, I’ve never heard of attempts to remove it from the Canon. I do know that the Anglican, Lutheran and Roman lectionaries call for very few Sunday readings from it. Most priests I’ve met prefer to avoid preaching sermons about the end times.
