******Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.*** Could you rephrase this please?
Sure: Romans 10:17***
My mistake. You have already rephrased it and taken it out of context to boot. You must read the entire chapter, not take one line out of context.
Paul is talking about the refusal of Israel to accept Jesus.
Gal 1:9 is talking about the Apostolic traditions and teachings of the Church. 2 Cor 9:9 is talking about personal generosity and the good works of the individual.
***Contrary, tradition is frequently attacked, not merely by the apostles, but very much so by our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus when dealing with the Jewish leadership which repeatedly appealed to tradition instead of God first.***
Paul, even more than other Apostles, demands that Christians accept the tradition - since the NT was not written at this point and would not be amassed for 300 years.
***Meanwhile, before one errantly goes off the deep end condemning all religion, Scripture doesn’t always cast out religion, rather the mechanisms used to glorify and worship God are of good worth when performed through faith in Him.***
Jesus created His Church, made Peter the steward and the Holy Spirit commissioned it at Pentecost. I do not think that Jesus created a Church in order to condemn it.
Did Christ or the Holy Spirit create the Church? If God planned for the Church as He did the Sanhedrin, does Christ really treat their tradition as He treated theirs?
In Romans and especially Romans Chapter 10, Paul is writing of the mechanics of righteousness and how we are saved by faith as manifest in the heart of the believer, not by the Law, nor by the traditions of the nation or grouping of believers. Israel happens to be the object to exercise that righteousness if she were to observe how the law of Moses was intended to be received by God in the heart of the believer.
Considering the early Church was Jewish, the context is most pertinent and not removed in post 46.
