Christ denounced all traditions, and demanded obedience to the written commandments. We must emulate him, ans reject the traditions of Satan taught by the catholic ‘church.’

Jesus chided the Jews for preferring their interpretation of Scripture over Him.

Since the Catholic Church teaches no tradition of satan, we're good. However by your own words do you reject Christ. You also reject the many injunctions of Paul to listen to him and the Church teachers. How do you reconcile that?

John 5: 33“You have sent to John and he has testified to the truth. 34Not that I accept human testimony; but I mention it that you may be saved. 35John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you chose for a time to enjoy his light. 36“I have testimony weightier than that of John. For the very work that the Father has given me to finish, and which I am doing, testifies that the Father has sent me. 37And the Father who sent me has himself testified concerning me. You have never heard his voice nor seen his form, 38nor does his word dwell in you, for you do not believe the one he sent. 39You diligently studyc the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me, 40yet you refuse to come to me to have life. 41“I do not accept praise from men, 42but I know you. I know that you do not have the love of God in your hearts. 43I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him. 44How can you believe if you accept praise from one another, yet make no effort to obtain the praise that comes from the only God? 45“But do not think I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom your hopes are set. 46If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. 47But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?”

The Jews had only Scripture, as do the self-interpreters of today.

. The Hebrew scriptures of course. They told all that needed to be said to find Christ.

Yup. That's why the nation of Israel are all Christian.

You might get away with that kind of deception with someone that has never read Matthew, but any Bible reader can see that Christ completely denounced all “traditions” in favor of the plain word of God.

Every ‘tradition’ of the catholic ‘church’ is an extension of the lies of Satan.
