No, but it also doesn’t mean that the Roman Catholic Church can make up whatever it wants to about her, teach it, and then claim, “there is nothing in the Scripture that (insert rebuttal here)!”

That is what has been done. Same with Mary’s supposed sinlessness, Peter as the first pope, and so forth.

When we’re admonished to not add to God’s word, this sort of supposition, or ourtright falsehoods, is also what we’re warned against.

“Same with Mary’s supposed sinlessness, Peter as the first pope”

Which is why I’ve argued that Matthew affirms Christ gave Peter the following:

1, authority over the other Apostles,
2, the power to bind and loose.

To be fair you would argue that your intepretation of scripture varies, not that we have not cited biblical evidence in favour.

As for Mary’s sinlessness, ‘all generations hereafter will call you blessed.’ That’s a pretty outstanding claim not else repeated in scripture.
