No.Hi Family,
As I look to the different denominations I see some riddled with traditions that some individuals find necessary to bless or to appease God.
Do we need these traditions?
Are we naive or small minded to place value on traditions?
Do traditions save you?
Are they necessary?
Why do traditions that are contradictory to the Word even allowed to continue?

Which one would that be? should we use the Ethiopian Orthodox bible? the Coptic Orthodox Bible? The Eastern Orthodox Bible? The Catholic Bible? or the Post 1800's bible?This begs the question.
Maybe In just a weirdo, but I literally have no more traditions. Jesus got rid of it all in my life. You may not believe that, but it undeniably true.

Some of us lack traditions of "our homeland".That's kind of like saying: "You know what, I don't have a culture. Jesus took all that away when I became a Christian. I'm no longer English or American in any way. Nope. Just a Christian!"
It's incredulous.
Are biblical traditions..outside of the sinner's prayer...necessary for salvation? If not, what makes them worth our time?

Are logical fallacies a biblical tradition?
Are logical fallacies a biblical tradition?
Are logical fallacies according to a heavenly mind or a carnal mind?
If the latter, why bother bringing it up?
Addressing the poster and not the post, does this mean that our conversation is over?I think you stopped contributing to this thread a few pages ago. These questions don't push the discussion forward.

My response would be that you likely have traditions that you cannot even see because of your denial that you have traditions. Everybody else I have talked to about this has traditions. Even those who say they have no traditions. I suspect you are no different. The danger for you is that you cannot see your traditions and as a result you cannot scrutinize them.Maybe In just a weirdo, but I literally have no more traditions.

Tradition only causes debate, and its totally unnecessary.My response would be that you likely have traditions that you cannot even see because of your denial that you have traditions.
