Roman consensus — Christ and Apostles taught unwritten faith and worship matters

Click or tap any sentence to jump there. The side buttons skip a paragraph.

Roman doctors agree: Christ and the Apostles taught and set up many points of faith and worship that sacred Scripture neither states expressly nor yields sufficiently when mined alone.

Christian and Apostolic doctrine, on their view, rests partly on Scripture and partly on an unwritten word passed along by mouth.

Latin

IX. Etenim Doctores Ecclesiae Romanae communi consensu docent, Christum Dominum nostrum, & Apostolos ejus, multa docuisse & instituisse ad fidem & divinum cultum pertinentia, quae in sacris literis expressa non reperiuntur, nec sufficienter inde possunt erui: adeoque doctrinam Christianam & Apostolicam partim Scriptura, partim verbo quodam non scripto, & ore tenus tradito contineri.
