And telling us to read Scripture is NOT an answer because Catholicism claims they are word of mouth aka tradition, and weren’t included in Scripture.
It is in Scripture, that everything is not in Scripture
So what are they? How do you know? How do you know they were passed down faithfully?
We have Christ’s promise that His Church will always teach the Truth:
“I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.” John 16:12-13
What are your sources for such knowledge and please post them for verification purposes.
The Scripture I just posted.
That's right...And what's not there is not scripture...
But at the same time, what is also in scripture is that every thing we need to know to gain salvation is written in scripture...So there you go...
So what ARE the word of mouth teachings passed down?
You have not yet answered that question.
Give us examples.
Specifics.
List the word of mouth teachings passed down from the apostles that you KNOW are from the apostles, and that you KNOW have been passed down faithfully in the form in which they were given.
Show us the path of transmission, who the word of mouth teachings were handed down to and from.
So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter. 2 Thessalonians 2:15
So what are these traditions??
The question has been asked hundreds of times and yet, no catholic has given the answer.
It says OR; not AND.
Thus; what they SAID was equal to what they WROTE; and not something different that had to be mixed together to get the 'full' effect.
