Question: What was the reason behind Protestants removing several books from the Old Testament when creating their own version of the Bible?
One of the main reasons was disagreement with the Roman opinions on many areas of True Christian teaching; especially that Rome allowed some teachings of Babylon, to gain easy control of their adherents!
In the “Modern” era; the Roman Priests still control the lives of all Roman Catholics from birth onwards, and have split their lives into Sections, which must be given Priestly Sanction, prior to moving to the next Section! If this regime is not followed, they are subject to a period of time in a state of “Purgatory” at their death! This of course excludes them from God’s call into Heaven; as the “Popes” teaching must be followed!
“Prayer and Penance” are allowed by the surviving Family and friends; and even payments to the Church Funds, of which Martin Luther objected, together with many other items; which almost got him burned alive, but he was saved by a German Noble who had “clout” with the Church!
This allowed/s Roman Catholics to be controlled from birth to death, by Roman Priests, on fear of losing their entry to Heaven, by Roman Church teaching!
There are quite a lot of Roman Church Rules, which can be seen on Google; but the outcome is as described above.
The “protesting” groups (approx. 500 years ago) called “Protestants”, led by many thinking people (notably Martin Luther) eventually produced the Protestant Bible; which reinstated the position of Christ Jesus to proper understanding!
Afterwards, a publication was produced from a Roman Catholic, which confirmed the erroneous inclusion of the Pagan Babylonian elements, and in 21 Chapters details each element of the Roman teachings, of which Protestants had/have successfully Challenged!
The book was Titled “Babylon Mystery Religion”; which the Roman Church successfully blocked, purchased and destroyed, and still watches all Libraries etc.; to continue the elimination of the book, as the contents are so damning!
However; despite the “Reformation” re. the above disputes; the Roman Church has not lost too much of its power; but it is now 'more’ conformed to State Law recently; whereas it was until recently a Law unto itself!
