Where is the list of ordinances, traditions etc? All that is left that is authentic is the Word. The Holy Spirit guides believers in its understanding. There is no list, what passes for one in the Catholic church is gnosis. When your tradition collides with God’s Word, God’s Word must yield to it, which gives a good idea from where the tradition arose.

Where is the apostolic teaching? It survives in the mode in which it was given.

All that is left that is authentic is the Word.

Would you have said that 2 minutes after Paul had stopped teaching? (I'm sure some did) What difference is made by the passage of time? Either he said things or he did not. Scripture demands that you accept them. This would be a matter of real concern to a true bible-believer. Why are you not searching to discover the authentic apostolic tradition? Why do you deny its vital relevance?

Scripture testifies to the necessity of observing the apostolic oral tradition. You cannot reject the oral tradition without rejecting scripture. You have rejected scripture.
