In what ways does Apostolic Tradition occur?

Answer 1

Apostolic Tradition occurs in two ways: through the living transmission of the word of God (also simply called Tradition) and through Sacred Scripture which is the same proclamation of salvation in written form.

Answer 2

Apostolic tradition is based on their teachings and practices as recorded in the New Testament. The New Testament is authoritative for the church. Perhaps the writings of the earliest church fathers also includes examples of apostolic tradition, but these writings are instructive, supportive and comparative, not authoritative.

Answer 3

Its called "Holy Orders" within the Catholic Church. The anointing of new priests through genuine Apostolic Succession. There are plenty of examples of Apostolic Succession througout the New Testament. Timothy..Titus..etc.

Answer 4

Apostolic Tradition includes both the oral and written teachings and practices of the apostles, and their faithful contemporaries.

Since the apostles are no longer alive on earth, the workings of the Holy Spirit in the ongoing life of the Church are now termed Sacred Tradition.

All forms of valid, authentic Church Tradition refer to the way the authentic Christian faith is taught, understood, and practiced, from age to age.

The Catholic Church is the same church that Jesus founded, authorized, empowered, and personally guaranteed.

As such, it can no more teach or practice in error than God could.

Other Christian groups have no such divine mandate, and no such divine guarantees.

The late day protestant doctrines of sola scriptura and sola fide are excellent examples of false traditions, as they have no support in either scripture, or in the authentic and constant teachings of the universal church.
