List of fundamentalist/evangelical "traditions"

[Cable]

E) None of the above, because it is not specific about the sense in which the bread and wine were the body and blood. This is why all of the various opinions have existed among Christian groups who were all trying to follow Scripture.

Having said that, you seem to have quite missed what is going on here. The OP requested Fundamentalist and Evangelical traditions. What I posted is the one of the most significant sources of those, and is not a validation of the claims of the Confession itself.

Except for Catholics, because they’re given an authority to interpret/apply Christ’s teachings in light of Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition. The ramifications of that, if looked at globally, are something.

I see a Fundamentalist Bible and celebration of the Last Supper as a matter of Tradition as well. And we broached the subject of interpretation and validity of these traditions in various posts (4,5,20,19, 32…).

Sure, but the question was “Which one does Scripture say is True?”, not “Which one does Scripture, as interpreted by the Magisterium of the Catholic Church, say is True?” Those are quite different questions, and call for quite different answers. The reason why you have the Magisterium performing its interpretative function is because your church acknowledges that the text is not as self-evident as the Westminster Confession claims.

Well, yes, that is what I posted about: the WCF is a nearly 400-year-old document which expresses a view of the Bible still often expressed by Evangelicals today, and is thus clear evidence of the traditional nature of their view of Scripture.

As for the Eucharist, yes, we have traditions about that, too (q.v. this), but that becomes much more complicated among the varieties of Protestantism, because some have very new and different ways of doing things.

I go to a Charismatic Episcopalian Church (not ECUSA) now, where I have come to love the Blessed Lord in the Holy Eucharist (something I never did in the Catholic Church) and our Bishop was visiting and in his homily he said Protestants are Christians but they are starving themselves when they don’t partake of the Holy Eucharist and worse when they only believe it is just a symbol

You and I (And Lutherans) come from a faith tradition (there’s that word again) which espouse that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist. You and I (I think Episcopalians do) believe in the transubstantial presence of Christ’s body, blood, soul and divinity in the species. Luterans believe in consubstantial presence. That is not a distinction without a difference.

As an aside, and please do NOT take this as an insult, too bad you are finding such solace in an invalid Eucharist and couldn’t in the valid one.
