Well the Catholics are of a branch that rarely consult the bible for whats right.

Rather, aside from use of Scripture for devotion and doctrines that are actually taught therein, they search the bible for texts which support distinctive Catholic teachings are not manifest in the only wholly God-inspired, substantive, authoritative record of what the NT church believed (which is Scripture, in particular Acts through Revelation, which best shows how the NT church understood the gospels)

Which includes the novel and unScriptural premise of ensured perpetual magisterial veracity as per Rome, whereby the word of God only authoritatively consists of and means what she asserts, which includes the aforementioned premise.

For Rome has presumed to infallibly declare she is and will be perpetually infallible whenever she speaks in accordance with her infallibly defined (scope and subject-based) formula, which renders her declaration that she is infallible, to be infallible, as well as all else she accordingly declares, and presumes protection from at least salvific error in non-infallible magisterial teaching on faith and morals.

Forget Rome, I’m going to learn the truths of the Christian faith from the Bible exactly as it interpreted by you, or if not you, by me, or if not by me, by Martin Luther, or if not by Marty, by Calvin, or if not be Cal by the Holy Rollers down the street, or if not by them by the Snake Handlers up there on the mountain, or if not by them by old Beelzebub Herself!
