Distinction in Understanding Tradition: Orthodox vs. Roman Catholic
The Orthodox Church views holy tradition as the life of the Holy Spirit in the church throughout history, emphasizing the infallible, perfect, and holy actions of God. In contrast, the Roman Catholic Church believes in a propositional content of revelation not recorded in scriptures but handed down orally. Orthodox tradition encompasses the continual presence of the Holy Spirit from the beginning of humanity, with scriptures holding a significant position.
