“We don’t interpret Scripture like some commercial contract with annotated legal interpretations on each section and provision.”
So, you admit your church hasn’t provided to you any specific interpretation for the verses you quoted?
How exactly can you claim to stand on their authority when you quote them then? How is anyone else supposed to be assured that the manner in which you are using those verses is consistent with the teachings of your church, who you claim has sole authority for interpreting them?
Of course the Church has provided authoritative Scriptural interpretation but not in the sense in which you demand this as if this were a legal document with annotated references to verses and sections. Scriptural interpretations attach to understanding and executing God’s Divine Plan. This is why the early Church Fathers deemed only certain books to be part of the Bible. That itself was a profound interpretative act. The Bible did not fall from the skies. Thus, this alone constituted a “specific” interpretation. We find this in the Catholic Catechism and in the works and books of our saints and theologians. What you are requesting of the Catholic Church is to offer is something in the nature of a “legal” interpretation like a commercial contract. Unfortunately, this is exactly what the “Sola Scripturalists” like the Billy Grahams, Robert Schullers, Joel Osteens, Jeremiah Wrights, David Koreshs’, Jim Jones’ and every other street corner Protestant pastor happens to do and we end up with 35,000 heretical Christian sects and where every other Tom, Dick, and Harry claiming authoritative interpretation of scripture.
For example, the Catholic Mass, the Sacraments, the Holy Eucharist, Confession etc., are all products of scriptural interpretation in the light of sacred tradition and revelation. Now if you wish me to submit to you a compendium of books that draw on these sources to affirm these beliefs I’d be willing to give it a try. However, if as I trust, you are really sincere in this search, then with relative ease you could easily tap into an ocean of theological material to justify these beliefs and practices. A Catholic university library is a place to start. There are also a number of Catholic Question and Answer websites. You may start with Pope Benedict XVI (Formerly Cardinal Ratzinger’s) epic treatise on “Iesus Dominus”!
On the other hand, if you are unwilling to do this and rest comfortable in your “own” interpretation of scripture, I can be of no help to you anymore than we could convince the Jimmy Swaggarts or TD Jakes’ of the error of their own interpretations.
