Tradition and the word of truth
When I came back from the devastated area, I had a hangnail which I haven’t had for a long time. In Japan, it is said that “if you are not obedient to your parents, you get a hangnail.” but the true reasons are drying around nails, poor circulation, scratch, weakening immune system, and so on. This is just a tradition but although it has no foundation, it has an implication for people who believe.
On the other hand, what does God’s word say? “Respect your parents. If you do that, you will be given happiness and longevity.” Some people don’t understand what that means. Actually, this word connects to our identity or self-image. How many people are suffering from this problem? We shouldn’t be influenced by traditions which don’t have any foundations and we should think about each Word of God.
Psalm 119:50
