Jesus had a way of disregarding religious traditions that enraged His opponents. It was one major reason they demanded He be crucified. Yet Paul praised the Corinthians because they kept the traditions he introduced. Catholics revere what they call “sacred traditions” to such a degree, it is considered equal to “sacred Scripture” in that belief system.
