Some people are concerned that because I have the Apocrypha and other extra books, that I will be lead astray. That won't happen for the following reasons:

1) I accept the extra books as secondary. In other words, they provide interesting information, but not used to establish doctrine.

2) I interpret things through the lense of the Torah. Regardless of what other books I read, the Torah comes first.

Comment

Plenty of folks, with and without the Apocrypha, had been led astray. It isn't the books you read, necessarily, that causes potential problems.

I have read the apocripha, and discovered for the most part, they don't add to what is already established in cannon. I have heard that Wisdom (or one similar) was removed from the protestant cannon because it gave too much power to the priests. I did not find that when I read it, but it would be for Levitical priests and not catholic priests if it is there.
