Whose traditions are we supposed to follow? Those of men or of God?
CATHOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. – John 8:36
The Apostle Paul wrote…
Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
-2 Thessalonians 2:15 (KJV)
The Roman Catholic Church expects Roman Catholics to follow its teachings as Apostolic Tradition. However, their teachings are not proven to have come from Christ nor the Apostles unless it has been preserved in the writings of God’s word, the Holy Bible.
But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
– Matthew 15:9 (KJV)
Official teachings of the Roman church are referred to as “Ex Cathedra” or as “from the church” or “out of the church”. The question is not whether these teachings come from the Roman Church. The issue is whether they come from God.
The Holy Scriptures are the foundation for Christian faith. Should anyone or any church teach differently to pervert the gospel or God’s message, they have gone away from God.
Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
– Proverbs 30:6 (KJV)
Cling solely and wholly to God’s written word, the Holy Bible, for it is God’s covenant with man.
Any an all other revelations must be checked for consistency with the Scriptures.
