The authority of the Church is not “along side of the Bible” but is based on it. This claim of the Church, which you may not accept, is longstanding. You may argue otherwise, but given that there is no neutral party to decide the matter, mere discussion must be conclusive, with everyone free to choose one side or the other, or neither.

The Church will not be there at the Judgment to advocate or give an account for any individual.
It is based on a handful of scattered scriptures taken completely out of context...Your religion is built on religion, not Christianity...
