If Scripture is the inspired word of God

Where is Sola Scripture in Scripture? Please cite chapter and verse. If you can't, Sola Scriptura is not Scriptural, and just a man-made religion started 1,500 years after Christ established his Church..

Where in Scripture did Jesus say to write anything down?

Slow learner ping!

I’ve seen this same question from you answered at least twice before on other threads.

Jesus Christ did one better...He told His disciples where to find it all:

Luke 24:

44 Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.” 45 And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.

46 Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, 47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And you are witnesses of these things. 49 Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.”

And then later, after Pentecost the apostles started writing it down.

What did Jesus Christ give as an authority?

Matthew 4:

4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”

On Jesus' views of the traditions of the magesterium at the time of His earthly ministry:

Mark 7:

5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?”

6 He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written:

‘This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. 7 And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’

8 For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men —the washing of pitchers and cups, and many other such things you do.”

9 He said to them, “All too well you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition. 10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ 11 But you say, ‘If a man says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban”—’ (that is, a gift to God), 12 then you no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother, 13 making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do.”

Pretty clear Jesus Christ had a VERY high regard for His written and spoken words. The Pharisees' man-made traditions could not muster an appeal to the Sola scriptura responses of Jesus Christ.

Where is Sola Scripture in Scripture? Please cite chapter and verse

From Jesus, declaring to the Adversary:

ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν γεγραπται ουκ επ αρτω μονω ζησεται
ανθρωπος αλλ επι παντι ρηματι εκπορευομενω δια στοματος θεου

(Mt. 4:4, as written in the characters of the plenarily inspired, inerrant, infallible, preserved Koine Greek language.) Which translated is (uninspired but accurate):

But He responded and stated, "It stands written.
'Man does not intrinically live upon a breadloaf only, but upon every utterance proceeding through God's mouth.' "

(A literal rendering into English, a nested quotation.)

And, of course. it is the prophet who says, "Thus sayeth The Lord" as Jesus as a prophet did to Satan, and Levi copied down the inspired words.

Jesus validated the authority of Holy Scripture found written in Deut. 8:3 by Moses: Deu 8:3 "And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live."

Can't cite the Catholic religion in scripture either...Therefore the Catholic religion is non scriptural...But more than that, the scripture condemns the Catholic religion from one end of the New Testament to the other...
