For Roman Catholic and Orthodox defenders to refer to these creeds as proof of an oral tradition in the early church, is as unscholarly as it is deluded. Between 180 - 325 AD, there were many different versions of creeds and none universally accepted. In 325 AD, the Nicene Creed became the first creed that was considered universal law and equal to the Bible. Indeed, the authors of the Nicene creed stated that every clause and phrase was based directly upon scripture.

Reasons why the Apocrypha does NOT belong in the Bible!

And justly; for those books, while they have great historical value, and fill the gap between the Old Testament and the New, all originated after the cessation of prophecy, and they cannot therefore be regarded as inspired, nor are they ever cited by Christ or the apostles" (Philip Schaff, History of the Christian Church, book 3, chapter 9) 21 reasons why the Apocrypha is not inspired: The Roman Catholic Church did not officially canonize the Apocrypha until the Council of Trent (1546 AD).

The Apostolic Fathers believed in expedient, optional tradition the apostles, the Fathers and every church today. What is most troubling about these liturgical traditions to the Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches, is that there was no uniform pattern anywhere, EVER in the history of the church. Although the Catholics and Orthodox fight over whose liturgy is the apostolic tradition, the truth is, no such uniform tradition ever existed. God deliberately left these liturgical choices up to each local church, otherwise the New Testament would resemble the legalistic system of worship seen in the Law of Moses. We are under the "law of liberty". B. How Expedient Tradition gets started and becomes law: Roman 14:5 Although Roman 14:5 is dealing with individual differences within a local congregation, it is easy to see how such individual traditions could grow to become widely practiced church traditions and then even as law.

History of how Calvinism developed It is essential to become familiar with these false doctrines so that one will not be led astray. To that noble end, this effort is dedicated. History of the Christian Church Vol II P 246 Philip Schaff, "It was the universal faith of the church that man was made in the image of God, pure and holy, and fell by his won guilt. But the extent of sin and the consequences of the fall were not fully discussed before the Pelagius-Augustine controversy in the fifth century." John Calvin was born in France on July 10, 1509. As a result of his study of the Greek New Testament, Calvin became dissatisfied with and left the Catholic church. Through his influence and teaching, he became the founder of the doctrinal system known as Calvinism. Calvin did not technically establish a denomination during his lifetime. However, his theology is the basis for the modern day Presbyterian church. It is somewhat difficult to find a classic five point Calvinist these days.

(THE WAY: What Every Protestant Should Know About the Orthodox Church, Clark Carlton, 1997, p 102) Carlton, is always looking for ways to trash the need for the Bible and would love it if all Bibles on earth were destroyed and all we had left was the opinion of his Orthodox Church. He actually uses Prov 8:22 as an example of why sola Scriptura doesn't work. What it proves, is that tradition doesn't work, because most Trinitarians today, including the Roman Catholic church, do not apply Prov 8:22 to Christ any more. Although Carlton is wrong when he says the "Orthodox" merely started to apply the text to the "humanity of Christ, not to His divinity", there were some who did just that: "An explanation of Acts ii. 36 and Proverbs viii. 22, which are shown to refer properly to Christ's manhood alone."
