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.

Catholics usually only ask questions, they don’t answer them.

Or in most cases, do not back up their statements with Godly wisdom found in the Bible.

You will probably get a question in reply.

Is seems the handlers of Catholics teach the same evasive tactics that the Mormons teach, answer the question they SHOULD have asked, not the one they did ask.

The same questions apply to Scripture. Biblical scholars agree that early oral traditions along with collections of accounts preceded the writing of the Gospels.

How do we know?

How do we know they’re from the apostles?

How do we know they’ve been written into the Gospels faithfully?

What is the source for verifying all of the above?

The source has been lost to history.
