I never understood the claim to sacred tradition as the apostles did not have any Christian traditions to call upon.

Thank you, and amen.

The apostles preached first then wrote books. The oral word is the key to understanding the written word because it safeguards against heresies.

Do you trust a preacher who lived 16 centuries after Jesus to understand the apostles’ preaching better than one who personally heard the apostles preach?

The Apostolic Fathers knew Jesus’s apostles and heard their preachings.
