Orthodoxy and Traditions


Orthodoxy and Traditions
Believers use words like orthodoxy, heresy, traditions, 
and cults to label the kind of teachings others receive
and the manner in which they carry out their lives of faith.Before applying such labels, wouldn’t it be wise
to ask ourselves what these words really mean? 



Orthodoxy is the adherence to the correct opinion.
An orthodox opinion in matters of religion can only 
be received via a direct revelation from God.In other words,orthodoxy refers to adherence to the opinions 
and thoughts given by God.Heresies are doctrines 
that differ from the thoughts and opinions 
God expressed in his word.

Doctrinal traditions are teachings passed down
through the ages.Such terms are often used to label people and their teachings.Instead of passing judgment arbitrarily,however, believers should use the Bible
as their only standard for judging orthodoxy and heresy.



If the source of true orthodoxy is a direct revelation from God, 
then we should examine biblical history—
he history recorded in the Bible, which is God’s word
—to better understand it.
