And Sola Scriptura is not in the bible either...to prove there is a thing as sola scriptura it would have to be in the Bible..its not.. Nice bumper sticker but really bad logic. By your thinking, we wouldn't believe in the Trinity because it isn't specifically defined. Sola Scriptura is implicit in the Bible, just as the Trinity is.
You should read the New Testament and see often Jesus appeals to Scripture as the final authority. Those of us who hold to Sola Scriptura merely follow the example of Jesus and the early church.

The ONLY scripture available at the time of Jesus was the Old Testament. The New Testament hadn't been written yet.

Jesus and the Apostles also taught orally...Can you imagine people asking them...do you have a document for that?

The early church was catholic and has stood for 2000 years..
