I pointed out on yesterday's TWODT that II Thess. 2:15 combined "traditions" and "epistles" which Paul had given to that church, suggesting that the one and the other had the same content. Ergo, the "traditions" that Paul gave by word would have been substantively the same as what appeared in his letters. There is absolutely no reason to think that these "traditions" were in any way, shape, or form contradictory to the written Word of God, and therefore, simply appealing to the word "traditions" in that verse is not any sort of support for all of the garbled nonsense that has been added over the centuries in the name of "tradition", but which finds no actual support in the Bible.
