@BowsacNoodle that is quite literally the point that I made. That is exactly why these church theologians are called 'father' by the false churches. It is pharisee behavior to forsake the Word of God for tradition. Christ says, "Isaiah was right when he spoke about you, saying 'Their worship is mere lip service and their hearts are far from the Lord. Their teachings are the teachings of men'"

The last verse you posted also demonstrates this, as some like augustine stated he'd rather have someone fervently disagree with him than take his word as truth when scripture is truth. These churches exalt these men to a greater status and hierarchy, by definition making their writings lord over scripture when it is the opposite that is true
