Sources of Divine Revelation
- Divine revelation comes from both Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition.
- These two sources are inseparable and equally important in the Catholic faith.
Tradition Precedes Scripture
- Sacred Tradition precedes Sacred Scripture, forming the basis for the New Testament's formation.
- The Church existed before the Bible, relying on oral tradition for divine revelation.
Big T vs. Small T Tradition
- The Catholic Church distinguishes between Apostolic Tradition (big T) and ecclesial traditions (small t).
- Big T traditions are unchanging doctrines, while small t traditions can be adapted or abandoned.
