That's a lot of verses containing the word, "Scripture."

Yet not one of them contains the word, "alone."

I've read the Bible through twice and have never been able to find it either.

You now have my permission to post all of your TRADITION references.

So you could add “Show Tunes” if you’d like? By your justification you can add anything you want!

So you read through twice? Good for you!

Then answer the questions about *sacred tradition*.

Here they are again, just in case you can't find them on this thread.

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.

>>Yet not one of them contains the word, "alone."<<

Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

1 Corinthians 4:6 Now, brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, "Do not go beyond what is written." Then you will not take pride in one man over against another.

Would you please show us the infallible source where the "traditions" Paul was talking about are recorded so we don't go "beyond what is written?
