How the New Testament was Formed (Part 1)
Considering all the writings that circulated within the church during the first four centuries, how did we end up with only twenty-seven books in the New Testament? When was the New Testament as we know it today recognized by the church? And why were other books that circulated around that time not included in our Bibles? Dr. Sproul answers these questions as he introduces us to the development of the New Testament Scriptures in the message "How the New Testament Was Formed."
