Origen
Seeing there are many who think they hold the opinions of Christ, and yet some of these think differently from their predecessors, yet as the teaching of the Church, transmitted in orderly succession from the Apostles, and remaining in the churches to the present day, is still preserved, that alone is to be accepted as truth which differs in no respect from ecclesiastical and apostolic tradition (On First Principles Bk. 1 Preface 2 [circa A.D. 225]).
Eusebius
While [Ignatius of Antioch] was making the journey through Asia under the strictest military guard, he strengthened the diocese in each city where he stayed by spoken sermons and exhortations, and he especially exhorted them above all to be on their guard against the heresies which then for the first time were prevalent and he urged them to hold fast to the tradition of the Apostles to which he thought it necessary, for securities sake, to give form by written testimony (Ecclesiastical History, 3:36 [A.D. 325]).
Protestants say, "by faith alone!" Scripture says, "not by faith only!" James 2:24
Protestants say, "Scripture alone!" Scripture says, "hold the traditions by word and epistle!" 2 Thess 2:15
He got that wrong as well as his other doctrines. Scripture says:
Matthew 19:9
King James Version (KJV)
9And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
And also:
Matthew 19:6
King James Version (KJV)
6Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
Sincerely,
De Maria
