Thank you. This proves what I was saying before. We needed Christ to come down on earth and complete the process of salvation and have His Church survive through the end of time. Hence all His words, written and unwritten, as well as all His deeds, recorded and unrecorded, were not redundant. This is why the Apostolic traditions carried out by the early Church Fathers to this day explaining the sacraments and the institution of the Holy Eucharist is central to the Great Commission given by Christ to Peter and His apostles to “Go forth and teach all nations....” One unerring truth to all nations through the end of time.

Salvation is already complete though, at this point. It was completed on the cross, once and for all time. Christ returns next time, not to bring salvation, but to bring the sword.
