***Scripture is holy because God says so, yes, but this only becomes meaningful when the Church proclaims it so.***

The scripture of the God of the universe is only meaningful when a lowly church says so? I think you had better rethink that. It is meaningful because GOD says so. It is meaningful when the Holy Spirit makes it so in your heart. The church is only a minor player in things.

The Church is not "lowly." The Church is the Body of Christ, the Body of God's Son.

Measure your words against the Scriptures you say you uphold, please.
