Thus you have a catch 22.....how do you justify traditions apart from His word? for by using it will only prove scripture trumps traditions.

Justifying their tradition using tradition is pulling themselves up by their boot straps.

Our tradition tells us the our tradition is equal to Scripture.

Well, how convenient is that?

Well “tradition using tradition” cancels itself out then....if they go that route...and disregards the authority God says we should use as the ultimate "decider" of all things.

Scripture therefore determines whether tradition is acceptable....The traditions of Christ and the apostles are things that would be recorded in scripture."
