Catholic Doctrine all makes sense - hold Tradition

It just makes sense. Catholic doctrine just makes sense.

Consider the fact that the Catholic Church teaches us to hold tradition (CCC #113 – 2). Many others have discarded the traditions of the church and focused on Scripture. In so doing, they have discarded the context and culture within which Scripture was written. The Scripture I am talking about is the New Testament.

Scripture itself attests to the fact that Jesus Christ did not write any Scripture. He established the church and commanded the church to teach his traditions to the world. The church then wrote the New Testament based upon the traditions which Jesus Christ established. Therefore, anyone wishing to understand the New Testament must first understand the traditions which are the basis of the New Testament.

Let me give you one example. St. Paul speaks of several doctrines in this verse:

Hebrews 6:2

Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

Everyone knows that the doctrine of the laying on of hands is the sacrament of the priesthood. Everyone knows of the doctrine of the resurrection of the dead at the end of time. And of the doctrine of eternal judgment to either heaven or hell. So what is the doctrine of baptisms?

Unless you know about the doctrine of the seven sacraments wherein the Holy Spirit washes us with an outpouring of grace, you won't understand that language. In saying, "doctrine of baptisms", St. Paul succinctly describes the doctrine of the "seven sacraments".  Every sacrament can be described as a baptism.

Therefore, unless you understand the traditions (i.e. doctrines) of the Catholic Church it will be very difficult for you to understand the New Testament.

Yes sir, Catholic doctrine all makes sense.
