metmom,

Asking for an official list of traditions appears to be the equivalent of throwing “holy water” on a vampire....

Or perhaps it is just asking questions that call for specifics.

In either case, I am for people knowing Christ by entrusting themselves to His Gospel of Grace, wherever they choose to worship.

I've noticed that too. Nothing makes a Catholic fade into the woodwork faster than asking for specifics.

I've posed these questions to numerous Catholics over the months and not had one taker on it.

Feel free to use them yourself.

Just what are those traditions Paul was referring to that he handed down that we are to keep that were not included in Scripture?

How do you know?

How do you know they’re from the apostles, Paul in particular?

How do you know they’ve been passed down faithfully?

What is your source for verifying all of the above?

Please provide the sources for verification purposes.
