***Individual interpretation of the Bible is unbiblical.***

If you get any group of men together, they will agree on very little and disagree about a very lot. Just because you have some church fathers agreeing about any thing, you can be certain that some sort of compromise had to occur.

Then you may as well throw your Bible into the garbage; based upon your logic. That same group of Church Fathers amassed the Bible and declared what is Scriptural and what isn’t. That is why you don’t have the Gnostic gospels; the Gospel of James; the Protoevangelion and so on.
Either you accept the Church Fathers declaring and defining the doctrine and the word of God or else you don’t. You cannot pick and choose based upon an inner feeling or what you had for lunch.
What's your view of the Westminster Confession?
You are confusing Protestant religious parties (i.e. "churches") with the true Church of Christ. There was no compromise. That's why there were so many who left the Church in heresy.
