The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. - 2Pe 3:9 God is love and His love is manifest in Christ who made it possible for us to be born of His HolySpirit and so be InChrist. But, He gives us the choice between life and death.   When a person receives Christ Jesus they receive EternalLife.   When a person rejects Christ Jesus they enter into EternalDeath against God's will. This verse totally undermines the false doctrine of ExtremeSovereignty.

Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts he any man: - Jam 1:13 God is sovereign but He does not exercise ExtremeSovereignty.   He has given us FreeWill.   He has given us dominion. The trials that we go through are the result of us living in a fallen world in which evil has manifested in the SinNature as well as sickness and disease.    God gave dominion to man who turned it over to Satan who is the enemy that steals, kills and destroys. Christ Jesus won back all the power that God had given to man but who turned it over to Satan. That power and dominion is now in the hands of Christ's stewards until His return.

Tradition often gives us a sense of safety, comfort and warm feelings.   

But Tradition may be Deceptive.   If the Tradition had an Evil beginning, there is nothing about Tradition that can correct that problem.   

Traditions define Cultures.   The Thinking and Behavior of past generations impact the succeeding generations - for Good or for Evil.   

Even though a Tradition may appear to be Good, it may in fact be Evil.   

And Jesus said, I am: and you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. - Mar 14:62 So, Jesus gives them what they want - a Confession of the Truth which they will not Receive as Truth.

Then the high priest rent his clothes, and says, What need we any further witnesses? - Mar 14:63 Blasphemy is how they see it, but it was and is the Truth speaking the Truth.

You have heard the blasphemy: what think you?   And they all condemned him to be guilty of death. - Mar 14:64 So, Jesus was Guilty of speaking the Truth and for that they Crucify Him.

In the above Scripture the High Priest rejected the claim of Jesus and Condemned Him to Death.   
He set a Tradition for the Jewish people who still follow that Tradition today.   As a result, millions of Jews have lived and died never Receiving the Salvation that comes only through Christ Jesus.   What a terrible Tradition!   

Tradition propagates Error or it propagates Truth.   Truth is the Word of God.   Truth is Christ Jesus.   All Tradition that violates the Word or denies Jesus Christ is Error.   

God forbid: yes, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That you might be justified in your sayings, and might overcome when you are judged. - Rom 3:4 Until we are willing to Believe the WordOfGod regardless of 'evidence' to the contrary we are not prepared to appropriate GraceThroughFaith.
