Calvinists are all for tradition.

But Scripture comes first.

But Scripture comes first.

Luther and Cauvin put the prideful confection sola scriptura before Scripture itself.

I am really glad to hear that. Really.

As authentic Sacred Tradition cannot contradict Sacred Scripture. Just as an accurate understanding of Sacred Scripture will not contradict Sacred Tradition.

As St. Paul said, So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter. (2 Th 2:15)
