2 Thess 2:15 I have always thought was the clearest instruction in support of Sacred Tradition. Even the KJV gets it right. Oh well...guess I’m just a dumb Cath-lickInteresting as it speaks in the past tense and refers to Jewish Traditions.

Interesting as it speaks in the past tense and refers to Jewish Traditions.How do you figure? From the NIV: "firm and hold to the teachings we passed on to you." Are you saying Paul, Silas, and Timothy are teaching the Jewish Traditions? And what Traditions specifically, since this was post-Council of Jerusalem?

2 Thess. 2:15 comes right after a long passage about false prophets and false teachings from the first 2/3rds of the chapter. When Paul says to “stand fast”, it is against deceitful teachings of Satan. In context, Paul is talking about Christian foundations, with which most of us agree.
