But here you are expounding your own new tradition contrary to the Apostles and the Church for two thousand years.

“Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.”

You're wrong. I have no tradition only the pure Word of God. And since your dismissed His Words - the Scripture I posted = in favor your man made tradition.....this Scripture addresses it.....

"The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned."

And many left him because of their WORLDLY thinking because eating His flesh and blood was cannibalism and the RCC is doing just like - w/their 'the real flesh and blood. And they are clueless to who JESUS is - SPIRITUAL/His Kingdom and not of this worldly kingdom. And those that didn't leave Him but remained were those that KNEW HIM.

When HIS WORD alone doesn't reign in ones heart as HE COMMANDED - they are led away with their worldly thinking for they KNEW HIM NOT. And Jesus says, "Depart from Me, I never knew you..." And that's serious! But not to one who doesn't take His Word serious to begin with for 'You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to the traditions of men."

Nothing new under the sun for "It Is Written".

Please allow me to fix that Scripture:

“Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, even tradition we invent as required, whether by word, or our epistle.” There. That's better.
