Crisis is going on in d north east and u seem to be happy with the bloodshed as u sound. U believe ur society is more righteous dats y it hasn't gotten to dem, to send help to the displaced people nko? No way you can't. And you call ursef true followers of Jesus. Dat is not the Jesus i serve

- Since you like internet research and Wikipedia

150 to 170 C.E. -
Tatian, Greek Tatianos, (born 120 ce, Syria—died April 173), Syrian compiler of the Diatessaron (Greek: “Through Four,” “From Four,” or “Out of Four”), a version of the four Gospels arranged in a single continuous narrative that, in its Syriac form, served the biblical-theological vocabulary of the Syrian church for centuries. Its Greek and Latin versions influenced the Gospel text. Tatian also founded, or at least was closely associated with, the heretical sect of the Encratites, a community integrating a severe asceticism with elements of Stoic philosophy.
So a composite account of Jesus’ life compiled from the same four Gospels found in our present Bibles, indicated that he considered only those Gospels to be authentic and that they were already in circulation.

About 170 C.E.,
The Muratorian fragment is a copy of perhaps the oldest known list of most of the books of the New Testament. Hence, the earliest known catalog of “New Testament” books, called the Muratorian Fragment, was produced. It lists most of the books of the Christian Greek Scriptures.

Some church will like to say they determined the canon! i.e. determined the library that is now the bible...
The Christians living between 31CE to 100CE will have known who-and-who to accept as anointed brothers. So what miracle is needed to know which apostle is authentic and which books were inspired. You mean the holy spirit will not guide the congregation towards using only the texts meant to be part of the canon. Because you are a Pentecostal you can't accept the reality of compiling the bible: The bible says those under inspiration were the writers. According to your Pentecostal interpretation the compilers are also under inspiration. And you wish your pastors to be the compilers. keep dreaming, it is free......

BTW, lets have the new lies from your researchers confirming to you the record of the miracles that were occurring after 100CE?! the new 400AD Bible tongue

Many times they've been thrown in prison, but it's a pity those giving you info will deliberately omit that part. There are many of our brothers across the globe imprisoned because of their Faith, what do you think their persecutors will do if they're able to lay hands on those leading them(GB)? We're Jehovah's witnesses, perhaps you tried to marry one of our brothers and it became impossible as you're not one of US, this has happened to so many people as they love to have virtuous spouse.

John the beloved d last apostle died in 98AD. Meaning Holy Spirit stopped using men in 98AD according to ur doctrine. 150AD is 52 years after and dat was wen d first compilation consisting of how many books.. (am just pretending like i agree with you ni oo. But u need to drop a link to where you got dat ir info from).

Here is whats wiki says.
The development of the New Testament canon was, like that of the Old Testament, a gradual process.

Irenaeus (died c. 202) quotes and cites 21 books that would end up as part of the New Testament, but does not use Philemon, Hebrews, James, 2 Peter, 3 John and Jude.[4] By the early 3rd century Origen of Alexandria may have been using the same 27 books as in the modern New Testament, though there were still disputes over the canonicity of Hebrews, James, 2 Peter, 2 and 3 John, and Revelation[5] (see also Antilegomena). Likewise by 200 the Muratorian fragment shows that there existed a set of Christian writings somewhat similar to what is now the New Testament, which included four gospels and argued against objections to them.[6] Thus, while there was plenty of discussion in the Early Church over the New Testament canon, the "major" writings were accepted by almost all Christian authorities by the middle of the second century.[7]

The next two hundred years followed a similar process of continual discussion throughout the entire Church, and localized refinements of acceptance. This process was not yet complete at the time of the First Council of Nicaea in 325, though substantial progress had been made by then. Though a list was clearly necessary to fulfill Constantine's commission in 331 of fifty copies of the Bible for the Church at Constantinople, no concrete evidence exists to indicate that it was considered to be a formal canon. In the absence of a canonical list, the resolution of questions would normally have been directed through the see of Constantinople, in consultation with Bishop Eusebius of Caesarea (who was given the commission), and perhaps other bishops who were available locally.

In his Easter letter of 367, Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, gave a list of exactly the same books that would formally become the New Testament canon,[8] and he used the word "canonized" (kanonizomena) in regard to them.[9] The first council that accepted the present Catholic canon (the Canon of Trent) may have been the Synod of Hippo Regius in North Africa (393). The acts of this council, however, are lost. A brief summary of the acts was read at and accepted by the Council of Carthage (397) and the Council of Carthage (419).[10] These councils took place under the authority of St. Augustine, who regarded the canon as already closed.[11] Pope Damasus I's Council of Rome in 382, if the Decretum Gelasianum is correctly associated with it, issued a biblical canon identical to that mentioned above,[8] or if not the list is at least a 6th-century compilation[12] claiming a 4th-century imprimatur.[13] Likewise, Damasus's commissioning of the Latin Vulgate edition of the Bible, c. 383, was instrumental in the fixation of the canon in the West.[14] In 405, Pope Innocent I sent a list of the sacred books to a Gallic bishop, Exsuperius of Toulouse. When these bishops and councils spoke on the matter, however, they were not defining something new, but instead "were ratifying what had already become the mind of the church."[15] Thus, from the 5th century onward, the Western Church was unanimous concerning the New Testament canon.[16]

The last book to be accepted universally was the Book of Revelation, though with time all the Eastern Church also agreed. Thus, by the 5th century, both the Western and Eastern churches had come into agreement on the matter of the New Testament canon.[17] The Council of Trent of 1546 reaffirmed that finalization for Catholicism in the wake of the Protestant Reformation.[18] The Thirty-Nine Articles of 1563 for the Church of England and the Westminster Confession of Faith of 1647 for English Calvinism established the official finalizations for those new branches of Christianity in light of the break with Rome. The Synod of Jerusalem of 1672 made no changes to the New Testament canon for any Orthodox, but resolved some questions about some of the minor Old Testament books for the Greek Orthodox and most other Orthodox jurisdictions (who chose to accept it).

Jesus instructed US to evacuate war turn areas(Matthew 24:15) Even Jerusalem the most cherished city of God's worshippers of ancient times,It's when such happens suddenly that relief materials are needed to cater for our family and immediately move away from such areas. The worldly governments are in charge of the territories they formed and apportioned to themselves for now So we're to subject ourselves to whoever is on top amongst them for we're not supporting either side(John 17:16,18:36)but our total allegiance is to our Owner,Master,Lord and King who ordered US not carry weapons or kill for any reason whatsoever so whenever there is disagreement with those who are not ready to take others from our GB(those overseeing the affairs of His sheep) the next is to take matters to superior authorities. Acts 28:19 I'll continue helping you to see reasons with the TRUTH!

Hmmmmmmmmm You said "Jesus' instructions NEVER change" are you talking about the same Jesus of Nazareth or the imaginary Jesus that some people formed? Remember it's each time He says something NEW that His followers start trying to practice it immediately,of course observers will surely notice that they're changing operations and those who can't cope amongst His followers will walk away! John 6:64-68 Moreover He's instructions at Matthew 10:10 and Luke 22:35,36 differs! Satan and his demons are targeting Christians my friend so Jesus do give NEW orders CHANGING OPERATIONS to confuse these unseen predators,so any sheep that fails to listen to the voice of the Shepherd is on his/her own.

Hmmmmmmmmm i pray that you get a faithful man to hook up to one day so that you'll be happily spending time with your husband,children,work,friends and ministry(if you're also preaching and teaching like true Christians) perhaps by then you'll not be spending 90% of your time on social media again.

no Pentecostal will claim dey determined d canon ooo. But we would not also try to rewrite history grin. We didn't determine the canon, we accept it as an authority and we believe Holy Spirit used the men who compiled it as he is still using men today. Miracle still happens cos our God we serve is God of miracle
Jesus' sheep are one throughout the Earth,they speak in one accord,preaching and teaching the same thing. They can't recognize themselves by face but by faith as they're all taking the same orders from the same King! Hebrews 10:38

Riofidelio:
Jesus instructed US to evacuate war turn areas(Matthew 24:15) Even Jerusalem the most cherished city of God's worshippers of ancient times,It's when such happens suddenly that relief materials are needed to cater for our family and immediately move away from such areas. The worldly governments are in charge of the territories they formed and apportioned to themselves for now So we're to subject ourselves to whoever is on top amongst them for we're not supporting either side(John 17:16,18:36)but our total allegiance is to our Owner,Master,Lord and King who ordered US not carry weapons or kill for any reason whatsoever so whenever there is disagreement with those who are not ready to take others from our GB(those overseeing the affairs of His sheep) the next is to take matters to superior authorities. Acts 28:19 I'll continue helping you to see reasons with the TRUTH!
you just iterated my point. So those displayed people do not deserve to hear about ur pure worship? So wen there is crisis where you are now you will still run away to another Christian dominated peaceful place to continue to spread ur doctrine grin.
So, the government us superior authority, more superior than ur GB? U would not hold gun, but will run to men holding gun for justice. Who is deceiving who?
