>>.it worked exactly that way which is why oral tradition is a very important part of Catholicism....<<

ROFL Make it up as you go is not “oral tradition”. The apostles wrote down everything that the Holy Spirit “brought to their remembrance” and nothing was to be added to it.

>>Say Thanks Catholics!!!!<<

Proverbs 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall

Isaiah 2:11 The haughty looks of man shall be brought low, and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled, and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

Isaiah 5:15 Man is humbled, and each one is brought low, and the eyes of the haughty are brought low.

James 4:6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

2 Chronicles 26:16 But when he was strong, he grew proud, to his destruction. For he was unfaithful to the Lord his God and entered the temple of the Lord to burn incense on the altar of incense.

2 Chronicles 32:25 But Hezekiah did not make return according to the benefit done to him, for his heart was proud. Therefore wrath came upon him and Judah and Jerusalem.

stop laughing...you repeated what I said....now remember this happened 2,000 years ago and the apostles were itinerent preachers who moved from one point to another....I really don't think that they transcribed their experiences as they went along. Tape recorders probably were not in use. They, at meetings, recalled what happened and where. I'm sure that they, at one time or another, had someone take notes so as to pass their message to others. The totality of what they taught and said was preserved for you by the Catholic church....say "Thanks Catholics"!!!
