Was the orthodox view that won the battle of "Authoritative precedence" the right one? Because if we look at Church History, as you suggest we do, then we have to recognize that the Bible in 66 book canonical form is a tradition born out of the 4th century CE. Is claiming that all words written in this book are "God's Words" a reverent claim? Or one that is blurred by our traditional views? my biggest struggle I think is asking:
