TRADITION TAKES PRECEDENCE

TRADITION TAKES PRECEDENCE

When men attend Bible college or attend seminary they do not go there to learn the truth found in Scripture, they are there to be taught the traditions of their church or denomination.

TRADITION TAKES PRECEDENCE

Have you ever seen a person who attended a Catholic seminary, graduate and then preach Baptist doctrine?

TRADITION TAKES PRECEDENCE

Have you ever heard of a person who attended a Quaker seminary preach Lutheran doctrine?

TRADITION TAKES PRECEDENCE

When have you ever been aware of a person who attended a Pentecostal Bible college who preached and taught the doctrines of Mormonism?

TRADITION TAKES PRECEDENCE

CHURCH TRADITION IS NOT SYNONYMOUS WITH THE TRUTH FOUND IN THE BIBLE .

Mark 7:7-9 'But in vain do they worship Me, teaching as doctrine the precepts of men.' 8 Neglecting the commandments of God, you hold to the traditions of men." 9 He was also saying to them, "You are experts at setting aside the commandments of God in order to keep you tradition.

The scribes and Pharisees were experts at observing church tradition. The problem was, they the were traditions of men.

Men, today, are experts at keeping and teaching the man-made church traditions of their own denominations.

Church tradition not only takes precedence over the truth found in the Bible, it supersedes the Bible. HOW SAD IS THAT? 

IF ALL OF THE BIBLE COLLEGES AND SEMINARIES WERE TEACHING GOD'S COMMANDMENTS AS FOUND IN THE BIBLE AND THE BIBLE ALONE, THEN THEY WOULD ALL BE TEACHING THE SAME THINGS.
