Tertullian, the "Father of Latin Theology" (ca. 160-225), witnesses to the authority of writings in the Western church. He stressed the criterion of apostolicity. For example, in his writing Against Marcion he clearly distinguishes gospels of apostolic origin and gospels written by disciples of apostles.

He names the main parts of the New Testament "Gospels" and "the Apostles," the latter phrase probably denoting the apostolic letters .41 Once again, we note that the boundaries of the apostolic letters are not defined with certainty, but this should not prevent us from seeing that for Tertullian the Bible was a "fixed entity."

Marcion's canon was much less than what was already accepted as scripture by Christians in general. Marcion's concern was to exclude books that he disapproved of from his "canon."
