The mass today is similar to the one described by Justin Martyr, 100-165 AD.

Nope.

Mary is not described as immaculate in the Bible nor is she described as ever virgin nor is she described as Mother of God.

Celebrating the most sacred night (day) on which blessed Mary the immaculate Virgin brought forth the Saviour for this world, and in communion with those whose memory we venerate, especially the glorious ever-Virgin Mary, Mother of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ, †

It is also interesting to note when Roman Catholics bow in the Mass.

19. Instead of the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed, especially during Lent and Easter Time, the baptismal Symbol of the Roman Church, known as the Apostles’ Creed, may be used.

I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,

At the words that follow, up to and including the Virgin Mary, all bow.

who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

We are not called to believe in the "catholic Church" or the communion of saints.

I could make up sentence using words found from the Bible and that wouldn’t necessarily make it Biblical.

Besides, the Bible was written in Hebrew and Greek.

Not Latin or English, so your claim falls flat from the get go.

Wrong, while even if true, this would prove what? There was a reason the devil quoted the Scriptures and the majority of the Book of Mormon is from the Bible.

This webpage contains the English translation of the Mass used up until 2011. (http://catholic-resources.org/ChurchDocs/Mass.htm)

Rite of Blessing and Sprinkling Holy Water:

Lord God almighty, creator of all life, of body and soul, we ask you to bless this water: as we use it in faith forgive our sins and save us from all illness and the power of evil.

Nowhere is water itself ritually blessed in Scripture in order to forgive sins and heal bodies.

May almighty God cleanse us of our sins, and through the eucharist we celebrate make us worthy to sit at his table in his heavenly kingdom

Nowhere in the inspired record of the NT church is the Lord's supper taught or shown to be a means of making souls s worthy to sit at his table in his heavenly kingdom. Instead, believers are not to take part in this communal feast which signifies unity with Christ and each other whom He bought with His sinless shed blood. See here by God's grace.

and I ask blessed Mary, ever virgin, all the angels and saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord, our God.

Nowhere nowhere are believers shown praying to created beings in Heaven (PTCBIH) or taught to, despite the Spirit inspiring the recording of about 200 prayers, and this being a most basic practice, with there always being plenty of created beings to pray to, and occasions for to do so since the Fall.

The above is not a complete list of all that a Mass can contain nor all that is not from the Bible, but it shall suffice to show that every sentence of the Mass does not come from the Bible, even though for a Cath this can mean according to what they read into it, as with PTCBIH .
