***Not everything is recorded in the Bible. Seems someone actually says that at the end of one of the Gospels! ***

Indeed it does. And if the world cannot contian them then surely the Magesterium can't either!

But what do you know about Jesus Christ that you didn't learn from the Bible?

Everthing I learned of Christ was from Scripture. However, not in the context of someone in 1879 who decided they had discovered a "new Truth" but in the Ancient Tradition passed down from the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church before the New Testament was even recorded and the canon created. This is the authority invested to the Church by Christ Himself.

Also, of what sense(s) are you speaking? There are several as documented below.

--According to an ancient tradition, one can distinguish between two senses of Scripture: the literal and the spiritual, the latter being subdivided into the allegorical, moral, and anagogical senses. The profound concordance of the four senses guarantees all its richness to the living reading of Scripture in the Church.--

That He is present in the Eucharist. Of course it says that in John 6, but since you don't believe it I must've learned it from Holy Tradition and you didn't
