HyperBeroeanWave on Nostr: Some of the traditions came out of old testament religion practices continued ...
Some of the traditions came out of old testament religion practices continued forward, and some were revealed to priests/bishops/etc. in a dream (not a joke). I value tradition, and I see scripture as the most important part of it. It's become hard to separate the two for me, because exagesis is a tradition even if it can exist entirely outside of any one particular church body. Churches have overstepped interpretation many times, and that's not unique to Protestants or Catholics or Orthodox. My favorite church traditions are ascetic, because it's about removing unnecessary things to leave room for God to work in your life and heart. One could certainly derive that from scripture, but practical application is the area I appreciate having more guidance on.
