To: Cronos
And in 1 Cor 11:2 2I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the teachings,[a] just as I passed them on to you.

And Acts 35In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'

which is an oral tradition handed down to Paul.

AND, it was oral tradition that ultimately turned into scripture...

it was oral tradition that ultimately turned into scripture Good -- that is a correct statement. And scripture does not include ALL of the Word which is apparent due to the number of flawed interpretations from the JWs to the Word Of FAith Pentecostals (Kenneth Hagin, BEnny Hinn etc.) --> oral tradition which is OF God through His Apostles was the repository of faith to help understand and read Scripture. Scripture when read in the community formed by Christ -- The Church, is true to Apotolic teachings and does not come up with strange interpretations like the JWs
