Re: Tradition: Reflective of the Pentecostal Minds
I have no problems with traditions either. They help to strengthen family bonds especially as they relate to holidays and other things. Even churches can have traditions which accomplish the same thing. Tradition is not a bad word!
But.... at some point tradition becomes doctrine, and it becomes very very bad. People also tend to take a tradition that is over 40-50 years and give it as much weight as something "that has always been". This is the problem with those who associate apostolic doctrine which began in the mid 20th century and put the full weight of biblical doctrine behind it.
