[edit] Methodist Tradition

  • A local United Methodist church in my area is doing Stations of the Cross this year (they call them "stops" though), this might be useful information, but I wonder if this is common to other Methodists? http://www.belmontumc.org/index.htm

Methodists are weird

Or perhaps this is the beginning of a new (old) tradition?

Another thought about the stations and tradition

I found out by studying the Bible, that there is no record of Jesus falling during his passion recorded in the scriptures. Now if we believe that the Scripture is the record from God to man about himself, then where does this information come from? I wrote a song since Tradition makes the Word of God of no affect according to Jesus Christ, my Saviour. You can listen at http://www.myspace.com/marcusrmusic.

here are the words:

Jesus never fell

Jesus never fell, on his way to Calvary, He bore the sin as only God could do. He died upon the cross, to set me free, I was in the fire, but he saved my soul.

Praise Him for the Bible that stands the test. Praise Him for the only Word of God. I was in the fire, but Jesus never fell, He saved me for eternity.

Adam was in the garden and tempted sore He fell beneath the load of sin In Adam's fall, we sinned all But Jesus never fell on the way to Calvary

The Bible never said that Jesus fell on the way God never said that about his Son, Jesus never fell under the weight of our sin, But he carried them all to Calvary.

Now to Him that is able to keep you from falling And present you faultless before God. Your garments are spotted with flesh and sin you are in the fire, so call on Him today.

Praise Him for the Bible that stands the test. Praise Him for the only Word of God. You are in the fire, but Jesus never fell, He’ll save you for eternity.

You are in the fire, but Jesus never fell, He’ll save you for eternity.

thnx for listenning bye<3

Well, that's very lovely but it doesn't really belong in Wikipedia, which is an encyclopedia. You may be interested to read about Sacred Tradition, which explains why Catholics do not consider it a problem that some things they believe are not specified in the Bible. Basically, it goes along the lines of "Lots of people witnessed the things that went on, and lots of people told others about what went on. After a while, some of those people started writing some of the things down, but not every little detail got written down, since that wasn't the purpose of the gospels. Some of these things come down to us in Holy Tradition, having been told to people down the centuries.". Roman Catholicism teaches that the Bible is not the only source of Divine Revelation. :) Skittle 01:49, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
