Someone had to know the truth of the scriptures. Jesus certainly did. There were people who taught the others what the scriptures themselves taught. That’s the way it’s always been. The Early Church (not the Catholic church) certainly must have taught their converts what they learned from others.

What you describe here is TRADITION, it IS NOT "sola scriptura." You have just proved the importance of tradition within the Church, because "sola scriptura" was IMPOSSIBLE for well over a thousand years.
