Subject: It's never effort-free with God! |
Bible Note: Hi there, You cited: 1Co 11:2 Now I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I delivered them to you 1Co 11:16 If anyone is inclined to be contentious, we have no such practice, nor do the churches of God. In what way do these verses infer that these traditions refer only to the text of the NT rather than those traditions delivered orally which may have things to add? I can't see your point is proven in anyway in these verses. It doesn't say as I delivered to you in the Bible only! 2Jo 1:12 is absolutely clear John has more teachings to deliver than what he has put in writing: "Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink. Instead I hope to come to you and talk face to face, so that our joy may be complete," viz. some aspect of his teaching is not complete. Can you reword the last line. "Because your church reinterprets all the verses which point out the disprovals." I'm sorry but I can't make out what you're meaning here. I interested in understanding your point.
