This is proof that you don't read the Bible that you claim to rely on for ALL of your truth.
The Jews depended on TWO pillars of revelation in the OT:
The WRITTEN Word of God (Scripture)
The ORAL Word of God (Tradition)
This didn't "magically change" in the NT.
It is precisely WHY Paul tells his readers:
2 Thess. 2:15
"Stand firm and hold fast to the Traditions you were taught, whether by an ORAL STATEMENT or by a LETTER from us."
Notice that Paul doesn't say - "ONLY hold fast to what is written."
BOTH the written AND the oral are held to the SAME standard.
YOUR view is ANTI-Biblical . . .
There are Few that listen to Jesus on earth. Because they aren't taught what he teaches. Just a little of it. One must be taught all of it. A blind guide assured them they were saved and they believed it so learned little. And were taught little. Jesus teaches this-- Man does not live by bread alone, but by EVERY utterance from God= OT-NT--Without fail those teaching that have Jesus as their head teach every utterance to the flock without fail. And the true disciples learn and apply every utterance without fail.
