Not at all! Catholics have never said to IGNORE Scripture. We believe that Scripture and Tradition are equally valuable. Not everything was put down in writing, and we need Tradition to understand what was written.

No, we don't We need the Holy Spirit to understand the Word of God.

As far as tradition goes....

Just what are those traditions Paul was referring to that he handed down that we are to keep that were not included in Scripture?

How do you know?

How do you know they’re from the apostles, Paul in particular?

How do you know they’ve been passed down faithfully?

What is your source for verifying all of the above?

Please provide the sources for verification purposes.

Christ condemned the alleged authority of tradition.

The persistent meme of “tradition is authoritative until we declare it isn’t” is plainly not viable.

Says who?

The ones providing the 'understanding'??

  Luke 24:44-47
44. He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms."
45. Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.

 

 

 2 Corinthians 1:13-14
13. For we do not write you anything you cannot read or understand. And I hope that,
14. as you have understood us in part, you will come to understand fully that you can boast of us just as we will boast of you in the day of the Lord Jesus.

.
Then Yeshua and HaSatan are equally valuable to you?

Everything that is a part of the proper worship of Yeshua the King is written in the ancient scriptures, and by those scriptures, nothing is to be added nor removed therefrom.

Tradition deceives, and we need only the Holy Spirit to understand what is written.
