You said "loose their lives" - but those weren't the issues anyone lost their lives over.
True -- no one lost there lives in the dark ages over the issue of "corban" or the issue of not baptizing fingers and pots after one comes from the market place - so not over the Mark 7 issues.
In Gal 1:6-9 it is any defect at all inserted into the gospel that is condemned - and many will argue that that was an issue in the dark ages.
In 2 Cor 11 it is also the issue of someone having a "twist" on the Gospel.
2 Cor 11.
3 But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his trickery, your minds will be led astray from sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4 For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted, this you tolerate very well!
=============
So Jesus is slamming the hammer down in Mark 7 on specific doctrinal issues that don't show up as doctrine disputed in the dark ages... but his example slam-hammering with a sola-scriptura argument against traditions and commandments of men that opposed God's commands - was a model, a method, a concept that does show up a lot during those 1260 years of dark ages.
