...and then a few centuries later some bishop in France started layong down the rules on which of the various scriptures was legit and in doing so started the canons. For over a thousand years few if any Christians knew of the existence let alone the content of those banned scriptures. And the major Protestant reformers of the renaissance were by-and-large limited to reinterpreting those permitted books rather than reassessing the banned ones.
blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” – John 20:26-29
