All right. I was making a point about the Fathers who were actually EARLY Church Fathers, whose testimony would tell us much about the Apostolic church.actually, that is not the case. St. Basil (4th century) does appeal to tradition
I am aware that the Catholic churches refer to men who came three or four centuries after the establishment of the church of Christ and after many new concepts had imposed themselves upon the church. Tradition, for example.
Of course these men would, in their writings, be reflecting the changed church of their own times. That is how the ECF come to be cited in defense of Papal Supremacy, and I'm sure that you don't consider that doctrine to be Apostolic.
