Mt 13:13
Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

Yeah, and this also..

2Ti 4:2-4 Preach the word (it doesn't say preach oral tradition); be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine (What is more sound than doctrine that is written down by the Apostles?); but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

And they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth (The Word of God, Bible, is the truth), and shall be turned unto fables. (Fables are oral stories told to itching ears)
