I. The Apostolic Tradition
76
In keeping with the Lord’s command, the Gospel was handed on in two ways:
– orally “by the apostles who handed on, by the spoken word of their
preaching, by the example they gave, by the institutions they established, what
they themselves had received – whether from the lips of Christ, from his way of
life and his works, or whether they had learned it at the prompting of the Holy
Spirit”;33
– in writing “by those apostles and other men associated with the apostles
who, under the inspiration of the same Holy Spirit, committed the message of
salvation to writing”.34
