Traditions of the Church - Q&A. Is the Bible the final authority of God? BibleOrTraditions

[bosoboy69]

Hi there, I love your videos it really does strengthen my faith in Jesus. I was a Catholic once but thanks to people like you I get to see who Jesus really is, its like Jesus wants me to come out of her just like Rev. 18:4. Thank you very much for your videos.

Also is it okay if you can make a video about the different versions of the Bible?  Why is it that the KJV is the only version that is the TRUE Word of God and the others are not and also about the gnostic gospels. Thank you.

[bibleortraditions]

@bosoboy69 - Thank you for the encouragement. Congratulations on exiting Rome and becoming a Christian. I did make a video on the KJV. I am not really a dogmatic KJV only. I do use it primarily, but there are some better interpretations of words on occasion... it's a verse by verse case. Rev 20:14 is an example (KJV & ASV). Here we get a better rendering of the Greek word "hades". It means the grave, not a fiery torment. Thus death and the grave can be thrown into the Lake of Fire.

@bibleortraditions I am so glad you are not a KJV onlyist. I too love your channel and am learning a lot. Dr Oakley did a good video on why KJV onlyism is wrong. I especially love the Catholic videos and am trying to convince people they are the apostate church as so obviously prophecied. Thanks again for your work.

[littlechief1031]

can you tell and explain which is the sabbath day? sunday or saturday?

[dwhitemoon]

@littlechief1031

it does not matter any more because all law fulfilled by Jesus include circumcise and Sabbath. You can read more in Galatians 4,5, Paul talked a lot about these laws. We are now follow spirit of the law taught by Holy Spirit. Sabbath Law was set for us to rest, just like sabbath year law to let land to rest, Remember, law is set for man, not the other way around

[cortezfjy9]

can you explain the time when the dinosours still roam the earth and are they true?

[bibleortraditions]

@cortezfjy9 - There are many great websites. They have a complete online library of videos on many subjects: answersingenesis

[Shaqpack609]

@10:00, I like what was said at that time...i found out that communion/mass are false doctrine and that the Messiah was actually talking about the Passover when he broke the unleavened bread and told us to do it in remembrance of him

[bibleortraditions]

@Shaqpack609 - Amen! The seder meal of Passover requires 3 pieces of unleaven bread. The middle one is broken. This is the one Jesus broke. The centuries of symbolic ritualism was being fulfilled. The Jewish ritual was looking forward to Jesus' body being broken. It was a practice that had it's fulfillment in Jesus, but He asked us to continue it in remembrance of Him. The bread all through the centuries was not Jesus' actual body, and it certainly is not now. It was and is purely symbolic.

[Shaqpack609]

@bibleortraditions wow?! I didnt know you knew that? 99% of people would not agree with me on that and argue concerning this issue...I guess you are on top of the scriptures to just like me. I actually came into the truth under this page about a year and about 9 months ago. And now I am spreading the gospel as much as I can. Thank you brother

[korzon]

@bibleortraditions Eating His body is simply ingesting His Word for Christ is the Word of GOD.It is learning His Word that is all not some litteral thing as these priests do.Even when told litteraly call no man Father but He in Heaven they don't even get that right,what do they do they call priests father.They are just confused with that strong delusion.And this is why Christ spoke in parables so the proud and so called wise wouldn't understand,but us His sheep would us so called dummies.

[GoodNewsSociety]

Which one of the 30000 different protestant dominations is teaching the whole truth? For example: Calvinists will not accept a Lutheran pastor because he believes in baptismal regeneration. Methodists will not accept a Calvinist pastor because he believes in predestination. Baptists will not accept a Methodist pastor because he believes in infant baptism. Which is the pillar and foundation of truth? 1Tim. 3:15

[bibleortraditions]

@GoodNewsSociety - You really seem to be so confused. If you count each and every Christian congregation of people with different name or sign outside, there are probably much more than 30,000. Who really knows the number? But there is only one (1) true Church of Christ. And it’s not a building. It doesn’t have a spire or stained glass windows. It certainly doesn’t venerate Mary, the saints or the eucharist.

[bibleortraditions]

continued... The Church, or Ecclesia, is a spiritual gathering of people who worship in truth. They worship as outlined by the writers of inspired Scripture. Christ is the head, and we, true worshippers in truth, make up His body. The spiritual temple. As long as you are looking for a building or sign, you will never find it.

[bibleortraditions]

continued... It is the remnant people who keep His revealed faith, not the traditions of MAN. The burden of proof is on YOU, if you believe a doctrine to be legitimate. To be legitimate, it must have been taught by the APOSTLES. Show us where infant baptism if found? Confessional boxes? A priestly class above the laity? Confirmation? Veneration of saints? Mary worship? The holy father? Indulgences? Salvation other than through faith alone? Celibacy? Brown scapulars? Purgatory? Rosary beads?

[TheCalderdude]

..when i checked my youtube inbox the other day...i received the very same message that i have seen at the start of this video!!! ...Wondering how on earth i was going to answer it....i just started watching the videos you have recently uploaded and have seen you have Answered it better than I or anyone could!! So i will be passing this on to them!! Unbeleievable!! thanks!!

[bibleortraditions]

@TheCalderdude - Great. Thank you for your support.

[Thorsupremecommander]

there is another verse of Paul's letter where he gives priority to first teaching Gal 1,8. So even apostles could not (didn't have authority) change word of God. We know that nearly all churches present day teach changed word of God. It concerns protestants as well. Clear example is Ex 21,7-11. This passage gives commandment about maidservants. Nearly all protestant verions (translations) contain word "wife" which is not present in original text. The same problem in Prov 5,18

[bibleortraditions]

@Thorsupremecommander - Paul is speaking to the people, "But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." Once again the operative word is preached... past tense. On the 2nd comment, my KJV says "maidservant". In Prov 5:18, the Hebrew word 'ishshah can be equally translated as wife or woman depending on the context. (Strong's 0802)

[Thorsupremecommander]

@bibleortraditions as to translation of the word isha. it is not about context but about possesive pronoun. if pronoun is present ishsha must translated as wife. if it is not present it must be translated as woman. In Greek definite article plays identical role as well. This is way the ancient Jews and Greeks made distinction between wife and woman. This is so because ancient Greek and Hebrew didn't posses exclusive word for wife/spouse. Instead they have idiom "pronoun + woman" as wife

[Thorsupremecommander]

Samaritan woman is not a harlot. there is no signle word of reprimand of her in Gospels. Instead we are shown that she is truthspeaking, she finds Christ to be seviour and brings the news to her village.

Harlotry of her is part of teaching of post 3rd century Catholic Church and all protestant churches who follow tradition.

[bibleortraditions]

@Thorsupremecommander - A harlot can mean either a prostitute or promiscuous woman. The Bible teaches that to divorce and remarry is adultery. This woman was remarried many times, and the man she was currently living with was not her husband. So yes, according to the Bible she was a harlot.

[IINormII]

Hi, its realy good video. But i just want to note, that when you use scripture, you should tell people also to look on the context. Its realy easy to inpertretate single scripture however you want... Thats just my thought.

And dont forget that Christ died for all, that means catholic people too. So spread the love :) God bless

[bibleortraditions]

@IINormII - That's true. But God warns us, we MUST worship Him in truth. Not "may" or "should". Thus we need to educate, and separate if need be. A stern warning comes to those entangled in false worship at the time of His coming:

"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, 'Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.'" Rev 18:4-5

[benevolent75]

Another great video. This world is so confused about God because of the many faiths. Love how you lay it out there and prove that our Father is never confused or contradicts Himself. Thanks for your continuance of teaching the faith as inspired by the true saints. May God bless you in all that you do.

[bibleortraditions]

@benevolent75 - Amen! All glory belongs to Almighty God.

"For I am the LORD, I change not" Malachi 3:6

[GoodNewsSociety]

You asked what is truth? How about where can we find truth? Well the Bible tells us what the pillar and foundation of truth is. “But if I should be delayed, you should know how to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of truth." 1 Timothy 3:15

[bibleortraditions]

@GoodNewsSociety - xactly! And the Church, the one true Church established by Jesus Christ and taught by the men God selected to write His word, is standing as a testament to His glory and plan of salvation. Everything we need to know is found in Scripture.

No johnny-come-lately theology, but the pure unadultrated Gospel of Jesus Christ.

[bibleortraditions]

@GoodNewsSociety - One more thought: as long as a congregation, gathering of people, or a denomination uses the Bible (God's innerrant word) as their foundation for doctrines and worship, they are a member of God's One True Church regardless of the name on the sign attached to the building outside.

[bibleortraditions]

Thank you for posting. Of course they had the Old Testament; that goes without saying. I was referring to the completed New and Old Testaments; what we in the 21st century would call a complete Bible.

Rome uses the word "traditions" in the NT to justify all of their Johnny-come-lately theology. This was the point and the reason for the question, thus the completed testimony was my focus.

[drshamast]

While I agree with over all points of this video I disagree with the argument that said the first Christians did not have the bible. they didn't have new testament but they did have the old testament which is all about Christ .there is book that explains that : Is called From Shadow TO REALITY while this video talks about Prophecy but it didn't say that most Christian used old testament for evangelism. Jeremiah 31:31-34 God bless

[shalimarsgirl]

Many "faiths/religions" claim to be the "one and only" true church of God, and I am learning about some pagan traditions that many follow. Let everyone believe as they choose, and I do not wish to argue with them about what choose to believe, but it really matters to me what God thinks. God bless you for upholding the sacredness of God's word. May all those who seek a place in the kingdom of God, find the grace and salvation of Jesus Christ while there still is time.

[YeshuaisLord100]

Catholics claim that the church and the bible are equal in their authority, but in reality, the church has the authority to re-interpret the text for their own desires and goals. They have the ability to read into the text and destroy the true meaning of it. This has been done since Augustine formulated all the heresy that now indwells the catholic church. Its unfortunate, but praise God that we have the holy scriptures to teach us the truth! Pray for all to be enlightened, including catholics.

[gneisenau321]

Pause at 15:57. Yup, that really pulls off the mask of Rome alright. Spiritually, the Vatican is Pagan Egypt, pagan Babylon, pagan Persia, pagan Greece and pagan Rome all in one but wearing the mask of a sheep.

[MinisterQuietBuck]

I have to fight people daily w/ the Word to try to make them see the truth of scripture over the traditions of men. So many are so wrapped up in traditions they cannot see the light of day. Good video, fav'd.

[bibleortraditions]

@MinisterQuietBuck - Thank you! 

[ChristiansofAsia]

Excellent information!

[korzon]

Most of the traditions that most denominations do are made up by them and not even in scripture,That is the problem.They have brought the levened bread in.

[benzion888]

the bible is the only tradition not the word of the pope or the church

[ChristiansofAsia]

@benzion888  Amen!

[Habsfan0206]

Amen! Great video! Elohim bless!

[aethiops007]

When people ask those questions they're not walking in the spirit. When they follow the instructions in the letters they would see the SPIRITUAL signifigance with deliverance and sanctification from SIN and works of the flesh. With signs following the HolyGhost would reveal himself in spiritual POWER if/when they obey the words the HOLYGHOST gave them 2,000 years ago.

[icoson]

Thanks, God Bless You

[Shirotora1979]

The fact we use the bible is a tradition in and of itself. That we look to it at all is part of tradition.

[Quezy76]

Glad to see you making videos again.

[Shaqpack609]
