"The TRADITIONS of men make the word of God of NO EFFECT."
Interesting. Gathering to celebrate the Word of God is also a tradition. Does that make the "Word of God no effect" as well? What about celebrating the Eucharist? Christ said, "Do this in rememberance of me." It is also now a tradition. What about reciting the Lord's prayer. Christ also instructed us to do this. It is also now a tradition.
What about celebrating the Eucharist?

Eucharist is not found in the bible. Do you mean breaking bread and drinking wine? Your wafer does not look like bread, either is it broken, nor do you pass wine for all to partake in REMEMBERING what Christ did for us.
Your system couldn't leave that alone either. By some sort of ridiculous witchcraft, you think you turn the Eucharist into Christ and you are actually EATING HIM. He said do this in REMEMBERANCE OF ME. I know what scripture you will grab for.....but hey...what is wrong with just taking a hunk of bread, breaking it and passing a cup of wine. What the heck is with this round thing that gets laid on the tongue, where did that come from. If I made you a sandwich out of that thing you call bread you would starve to death.
