Tell us where in the Bible that we are told to take the tradition of men on equal standing with the Word of God.

Every time Jesus encountered that mindset, He condemned it and responded with *It is written....*.

Did you sleep well last night?

Well, I know that Christ used the words, "It is written" to rebuke the devil tempting Him in the wilderness. And He also said, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer, but ye have made it a den of thieves.'" But none of those "counter tradition."

Where else? I've been looking through the KJV, just don't find it anywhere else in the NT, particularly when He was countering some tradition. BTW, which traditions did He "counter"?

Of course, PAUL said it a number of times, but PAUL is not Christ. Right? And no one worships Paul, right?

I will answer that when you tell me where in the Bible it says the tradition of the Body of Christ is the tradition of men.

Thanks for asking. I slept lousily, which is why I am less than my usual sweet self (I AM usually sweet, right? RIGHT? I .. Said .. RIGHT?) but we messed with the meds, so maybe tonight will be mo' better. Bless you for asking. As I lie on my back tonight, studying the inside of my eyelids, I will comfort myself with thoughts of my adversary car9ing and praying for me.

For the love of God is broader//Than the measure of man's mind.
