First, that all that is necessary to come to Faith in Jesus Christ is contained in Scripture

Yes, but that can happen at any time, even at the time of death.

Second, that no doctrine, dogma, religious practice should be followed if it is not clearly found to be supported in Scripture. It is the second definition that has caused all the angst because it supersedes any claimed authority of any body of clerics.

Where is that in the bible??????

Acts 17:10 Then the brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so. 12 Therefore many of them believed, and also not a few of the Greeks, prominent women as well as men.

One has to actually honor the bible to believe the importance of what it says of itself. The RC seems bent on wiggle room to ignore what the bible says.
