Instead Christ gives us His new law: the Holy Scripture and Holy Traditions of His Church, the Roman Catholic Church, founded at Pentacost with Peter as its head.

No it doesn't. (Shaking my head here). There is absolutely nothing in Scripture that teaches anything about "Holy Traditions" or the "Roman Catholic Church". Scripture also says nothing about Peter being its head or popes or bishops or cardinals or any of other positions of ecclesiology within the Catholic Church. What it teaches is pastors, elders, and Deacons. (II Timothy Chapter 3) Where you find Catholic ecclesiology is outside of Scripture in the Roman political system of Government, INCLUDING the Title of Pontus Maximus or 'Pope'. Hence the title: "Roman" Catholic. You should take a Roman History course sometime.

There is absolutely nothing in Scripture about sola scriptura, so the rest of your post is moot.
