It is Protestants, who added to and subtracted from, the Word of God.



Lutero:

You are getting close to the facts on this because it was not until Trent that the canon of the bible was canonized.
Then how did the canon of the Bible exist for 1000 years before that council?


However they did NOT confirm the Vulgate which had declared that the Deuterocanicals were apochrypha.
 Because they aren't.

Trent declared the Deuteros to be equal to the rest of scripture, unlike the Vulgate.
The records of Trent are public. Here is the exact quote:
Decree Concerning The Edition And Use Of The Sacred Books
Moreover, the same holy council considering that not a little advantage will accrue to the Church of God if it be made known which of all the Latin editions of the sacred books now in circulation is to be regarded as authentic, ordains and declares that the old Latin Vulgate Edition, which, in use for so many hundred years, has been approved by the Church, be in public lectures, disputations, sermons and expositions held as authentic, and that no one dare or presume under any pretext whatsoever to reject it.....

All the books of the Vulgate were approved and declared to be Scripture, just like the Vulgate



Martin Luthers translation of the Vulgate into German was like the Vugate in all respects. The Trent Canon was not.
All you have to do is provide proof. The fact is that it is Luther and the Protestants who rejected the Deuteros. It is they who labeled them apocryphal.  It is they, who added to and subtracted from, the Word of God.

Sincerely,

De Maria
